Salt (opt.) 

 

1 tsp. white vinegar 

 

Freshly ground black pepper 

 

Directions: 

 

Cut off tips and separate each wing at the joint. Add salt and pepper for taste. Heat vegetable oil in a large pot, then cook half the wings for about ten minutes until crisp. Remove and drain the wings after they're cooked and repeat for remaining wings. 

 

Also, melt butter in a saucepan, then add the hot sauce and vinegar. Drench wings with the hot sauce. To win over the crowd, add blue cheese dressing and celery sticks to the line-up. 

 

 

 

Nacho Dip  

 

Ingredients: 

 

1 (8 oz.) pkg. cream cheese 

 

1 can chili with beans 

 

1 small can green chilies 

 

1 (8 oz.) pkg. shredded cheddar cheese 

 

Directions: 

 

Mix everything except the cheese in a serving dish. Heat the dish at 350 degrees for 15 minutes (three minutes for microwave ovens). Remove from heat then stir well. Cover with shredded cheese then melt in oven. Pair up with tortilla chips to create a duo better than Donovan McNabb and Terrell Owens. 

 

 

 

Quesadillas 

 

Ingredients: 

 

8 flour tortillas 

 

sliced green onions 

 

sliced jalapeno peppers 

 

2 c. grated cheese 

 

Directions: 

 

Heat skillet over medium heat and brush with oil. Add a tortilla, half a cup of cheese, and other ingredients, such as tomatoes or meat. Put a second tortilla over the cheesy ingredients and cook each side for two minutes. After repeating this process until four quesedillas have been formed, slice each into six wedges. 

 

 

 

Layered Bean Dip

1/2 lb. grated Monterey Jack cheese 

 

1 1/2 tsp. taco seasoning mix 

 

Tortilla chips 

 

Directions: 

 

Mix cream cheese, sour cream and bean dip into a medium bowl. Next, blend seasoning mix, green chilies and onions. Then spread half of the mixture in a 9x13 inch baking dish and layer cheeses on top. Next spread with the leftover bean mixture and bake for 20 to 30 minutes at 350 degrees. And of course, serve with chips!
