This recipe calls for cooked shredded chicken. I usually have 3 cup bags of cooked shredded chicken in my freezer. When boneless skinless chicken breasts are on sale I pick up a bunch and cook it up in my crockpot. I shred some and cube some so that it is ready when I need it for a recipe. If you don’t know how to make shredded chicken in your crockpot, check out my recipe here.

I was blessed to receive a $50 gift code from LTD Commodities to purchase items to help me plan a great Super Bowl spread. We did a trial run the other night My family was excited to get a bonus Supper Bowl supper. Here is what we did.

LTD Commodities Items I Chose

Bakeware with Metal Holder–Take food from the oven to the table in style in this Bakeware with Metal Holder. It’s easy to carry with a handle on each end that folds down when not in use. Ball feet at the corners keep the hot dish off the table. Stoneware dish, 9-3/4″W x 6-1/2″D x 2-3/4″H. Metal holder, 10-3/4″W x 7-1/4″D x 2-1/2″H. Microwave (dish only), oven, dishwasher and freezer safe.

I made Cheesy Pizza Dip in this new bakeware. Tomorrow I’ll be sharing the recipe for that dip so make sure you are subscribed so you won’t miss it!

Oversized Chip and Dip Bowl-Unfortunately this was such a great seller it is currently out of stock! This time I just used it for potato chips and onion dip but I will also use this for chips and salsa, crackers and bacon cheddar dip or chips and my spicy queso dip in the future.

Chicken Wing Serveware Set of 4 Bowls and Chicken Wing Serveware Platter– These two items will be the centerpiece of your Super Bowl party. You can use these for just about anything, this time I did  Honey Barbecue Wings but next time I’ll do Cajun Buffalo Wings, or you could use this for Easy Peasy Pizza Roll-Ups too!

As you can see, we had a great time and I can’t wait for Super Bowl Sunday so that we can eat more of these delicious football foods! For those interesting in attending a game, check out the Football Ticket Pad.

This dip is best when it has been sitting in the refrigerator for at least 24 hours after making. This allows the flavors to really meld together before serving. I chose to serve this dip with tortilla chips but it is also good with corn chips, crackers or even on celery.

While you may not be thinking about the dangers of buzzed driving this time of year, you or someone you know will likely be attending a party where alcohol is served. So whether you’re rooting for the Colts or the Saints, there are some things you need to know to keep yourself and your loved ones safe before, during and after Super Bowl XLIV.

When you’re heading out to a party or hosting guests, remember to always plan ahead:

Designate a sober driver or be prepared to find a safe ride home for your guests

Be ready to take alternate transportation such as a bus or taxi. Have the phone number of a taxi service stored in your phone before you leave for the party.

In 2008, 11,773 people were killed in alcohol-impaired driving crashes.

I’m working with the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) and the Ad Council as they continue their efforts with the “Buzzed Driving is Drunk Driving” PSA campaign. Buzzed drivers are those who drink and drive, but do not consider themselves a hazard on the roadway because “only a few” drinks are consumed. The campaign hopes to educate people that consuming even one drink too many can impair driving and that “Buzzed Driving is Drunk Driving.” So even if you are planning on staying home Super Bowl weekend, please remind your loved ones that buzzed driving IS drunk driving.

To learn more about the impact buzzed driving can have on a life, please watch this important video about the financial and personal repercussions of getting a DUI.

Remember: Buzzed Driving IS Drunk Driving. Plan ahead and ask your loved ones to do the same.
