We have many readers around the world besides those here in the United States. For those of you from far away, America has entered the Month of the Playoffs. There will be a Super Bowl in a month, but the teams that get there will be determined by games played over the next three weekends. Fans will be glued to their couches from now until the Giants are crowned the champions of football.
Oh, dear, it seems that the Giants did not even make these playoff games so their chance of a championship won’t arrive until 2012. In the meantime, and for the coming weeks, we’ll provide some recipes each week for football parties where you can have wonderful food that is easily available during the 6+ hours of these first playoff games and the 4 hours of the Super Bowl itself.
These are often weekends filled with Mexican food and chicken wings. We’ll offer those recipes, of course, but in a style that will make your munching more rewarding. And, there will be some tapas ideas that are easily to prepare and will let you have a whole tableful of different dishes.
You will eat well. And you won’t even miss the Giants.
