Super Bowl Party Wrap Up
We are WAY TOO MUCH! The menu included: iced down drinks (in glass bottles....those are just so much more fun, cookies, chips with Bebo's mexican cheese dip, fruit kabobs and sausage stuffed french loaves. The stuffed french bread was the new recipe that we tried and we will be making it again! I was actually really easy and really good. It made up two loaves and I think that the 2nd loaf would freeze easily. It is actually much prettier than what it shows up as in the pic.
Sausage Stuffed French Loaves (I squiggled the parts that I tweaked.)
2 fat, long loaves of French Bread
8 oz bulk pork sausage (I used 4 oz of regular sausage and 4 oz maple sausage)
8 oz ground beef (I used closer to 12 oz)
1 medium onion chopped
1 egg
1 tsp dijon mustard (I used about 1/4 C)
1/4 C parsley (I left this out. I used about 3 TBL Oregano)
1/ tsp fennel seeds (left this out)
Salt and Pepper
1 C. sharp cheddar cheese
2 TBL Butter
2 cloves of garlic crushed (I used powdered garlic)
Preheat oven to 400. Cut off one end of each loaf. Hollow of the loaf with your fingers and a long knife. Tear up the bread that comes out of the loaves into coarse pieces and set aside. Brown the sausage and then add the ground beef and onions. Cook until your ground beef is done. (I drained everything off at this point.) Combine the bread crumbs, meat mixture, egg, mustards, spices, salt and pepper. Spoon the mixture into the bread shells and then attach the ends withback on with toothpicks. Melt the butter and add the garlic. Brush this mixture over your loaves. Wrap them each in foil and back for 15 to 20 minutes. I then opened up the foil and left the loaves in the oven for a few minutes to brown up the top.
Why is it that the beer commercials are always the best commercials? I loved the sheep as a streaker.
I have discovered that a 13 year old boy is humorously tacky when his team wins the Super Bowl. Today he is still taunting me. He keeps asking me *Now, what was the score again??* And today it went like this:
Bebo as I was taking him to school and he was about to get out: *Hey Mom! If Western Union was still sending telegrams this is what your telegram would say: "Your team got beat....stop" "Cause your team sucks....stop" "Too bad you lost....stop" "love Bebo...stop"
"Bebo...stop"
"Congrats on your Super Bowl win...stop"
"I will no longer do your laundry...stop"
"We will see if you are still funny with stinky underwear...stop"
"Love your Mom...stop"
I love it.
Sheeze, now my own blog will not let me back in to correct something.
ReplyDeleteThat should be we ATE way too much!
Good Mama.
ReplyDeletewow!
ReplyDeleteLOL we sat here and watched Monk reruns all day. My kids absolutely LOVE that show. A great show about an obsessive compulsive whackjob that my obsessive compulsive whackjob kids like. Perfect. We are just not a sports family by any stretch of the imagination. And do you really think not doing his laundry is going to make him stop? If he's like my son, he'd wear the same undies every day until they were walking over to him and begging to be burned.
ReplyDeleteHaven't you heard? Blogger has issues!
ReplyDeleteThe stuffed bread loaf looks delicious.
I too loved the sheep as a streaker commercial...what does that say about us?
You're making me hungry!
ReplyDeleteYou're a great mom; Bebo's lucky to have you.
Thanks for always being entertaining, Mindy. Whether it's a poignant story or fun, like this one, you just have a way of engaging the reader. Thanks for sharing your life with us.
ReplyDeleteHAHAHA, I was with you Mom Gator, I knew that the Stealers would win, but I was going for the Sea Hawks. Also you didn't put anything about the Bud commercial where the pony is pulling the wagon and he thinks he is doing it himself, but there's really two horse behind the wagon pushing it. I thought it was so sweet! Or the Fed Ex on with the cavemen. And he kicks a bird, and then a big foot steps on him. HAHAHA
ReplyDeleteI usually try to watch the half time show, but I fell asleep. How lame is that. Your food spread sounds fantabulous, though!
