GO NINERS!

Today was a big sports day at our house... Niners playing the Falcons, YAY we are going to the Super Bowl, and the Sharks first game of the season!!!! Let's be honest, sports are entertaining to watch but are way better with delicious food & drinks :) With that said, Greg and I picked a few items to make!!

BBQ Wings

Asparagus Fontina Tart

No Bake Oreo Bars

We washed it down with a beer, Session, that is new to us.. and very delicious. Light & perfect for a warm day!

BBQ Wings Recipe:

Marinate chicken overnight with your favorite BBQ Sauce, worcestershire, and brown mustard. The next morning we took the chicken out and dipped it in flour. Then we baked the wings in the oven at 400 degrees for 20 minutes (roughly) each side. Flip them and do another 20 mins. After they were done we put them in an electric skillet with some extra BBQ sauce. Serve when ready to eat!

Wings.. half eaten :)

Asparagus Fontina Tart Recipe

Ingredients

Flour- for work surface. 

1 Sheet frozen puff pastry- defrosted

2 Cups shredded Gruyere, Fontina or Emmenthaler cheese

1 1/2 pounds asparagus

Olive Oil

Salt & Pepper

Directions

Preheat the oven to 400. On a floured surface, roll the puff pastry into a 16X10 inch rectangle. Place pastry on a baking sheet. With a sharp knife, lightly score the dough 1 inch in from the edges to mark a rectangle. Using a fork, pierce the dough inside the markings. Bake until golden- about 10-15 minutes. 

Remove pastry shell from oven. Sprinkle cheese and arrange the asparagus on top in a single layer alternating ends and tips. Brush with oil, season with salt and pepper. Bake until spears are tender, 20-25 minutes. Cut up and serve.  

No Bake Oreo Bars

This is basically rice crispy treats but sans the rice krispies and add ground up Oreos mmm! These were yummy but very dense so quite filling.

Ingredients:

1 package Oreos

5 cups large marshmallows, which is 40 marshmallows

4 tablespoons butter

Directions:

Butter an 8X8 dish. Line with wax paper allowing the paper to overhang slightly on both ends. Butter wax paper. In a food processor, pulse Oreos until ground. Melt the butter and marshmallows in the microwave for about 2 minutes. Stir the Oreo mixture into the marshmallow and butter mixture. Transfer to prepared baking pan. Using some wax paper, push the mixture down. Let sit until hardened, about 10 minutes, cut up & serve. 

See you at the Super Bowl Ravens!!!
