6 Easy Recipes To Enjoy On The Big Game Day
When we think about hosting Game Day Sunday we think about a chilled day spent with good friends, cheering for our favorite team, and enjoying tasty dishes that require minimal prep time. Unlike a copious and time consuming Thanksgiving meal, Game Day food is mostly snack size and there to accompany a variety of cocktails and beers. Here are 6 of our favorite easy recipes – including drinks – that can be made in your rice cooker and blender.
Chipotle Chicken Burritos With Mexican Rice
Loaded with tons of South-of-the-border flavor, these chipotle chicken burritos with Mexican rice are the perfect filling dish to serve with chips and salsa. These burritos are packed with smokey and spiced chipotle chicken, tomato and bean rice, and a little salsa and guacamole. And the entire recipe can be made in your rice cooker by using the synchro cooking method!
Tortilla Chicken Salad
This is a unique and fun Super Bowl recipe your guests will love! The simple yet tasty creamy chicken salad is wrapped in crispy lettuce and freshly homemade tortillas. But not the traditional type of tortillas! Think of these wraps as a delicious mash up between a tortilla and a crepe. The result is a dish that’s light, creamy, savory, and hard to stop eating!
Salsa Verde
For this tomatillo loaded salsa verde recipe we are cooking the tomatillos, onions, garlic, and jalapeno, to release their sweet, sour, tangy, and spicy flavors. Fresh, tangy and a bit spicy, this sauce is used in everything from chilaquiles and enchiladas to a topper for nachos or tacos. The final dish is seasoned with fresh lime juice, chopped cilantro, and a touch of salt, to add a refreshing and slightly salty taste.
Frozen Margarita
Sour, salty, frosty, and perfect to celebrate kick off time, a frozen margarita is the perfect drink to pair with most Super Bowl foods. There are two keys to making the best frozen margs:
- First, get the ingredients right. A good quality tequila blanco, orange liqueur and fresh lime juice are a few of the usual suspects.
- Second, using the right blender matters. The best blender for frozen margaritas can pulverize ice effectively over and over, without breaking a sweat.
Follow these two easy rules and your smooth, icy blended cocktails will be the talk of the party!
Michelada
Michelada is a refreshing cocktail made with a mixture of tomato juice and beer (also called a red eye). The flavors are enhanced by adding some freshly squeezed lemon juice and a dash of spicy tabasco sauce. What makes our recipe different is the use of fresh tomatoes. On top of using tomato juice we’ve added 2 whole fresh tomatoes that are blended to bump up the fruity and fresh element of this vivid red cocktail.
Baby Spinach and Carrot Cocktail
Looking for a cocktail that will give you a boost of energy? Try this baby spinach and carrot drink. The mix of green spinach, sweet carrot, tangy lemon, and fruity apple, tastes like a freshly pressed juice. Except that it comes with a sparkly dash of tonic and a splash of vodka that will make your tastebuds dance the day away!
