Preview for Appetizer Week

I heard there is a little football game coming up next Sunday....I can't remember the details, but apparently it's a big deal. Anyway, I know that it is tradition to load up on fried chicken, deep dish pizza and beer for this particular party - but what if you changed things up this year?!

Next week I will be posting healthy appetizer ideas for your Super Bowl Sunday Parties!!!! I promise I won't give you instructions on how to make a veggie tray:)

So, come back on Monday to start preparing for some seriously awesome.....commercials!!!!!
