Mr. G and I love to watch football and since I haven’t had a pony in the Super Bowl game since the ’80s, I still enjoy all the excitement of the game and festivities.

Each year a couple of neighbors, hubby, and I will rotate who has the Super Bowl Party. There are 3 couples in total and there are 4 different fan teams involved every year. Of course, one of my neighbors’ teams has been in the Super Bowl for so many years now it’s getting disgusting!! And of course, his team is my team’s biggest rival.  We did beat them through this year!!  hehe But that’s what makes the game so much fun every year. 

And of course, I am a huge fan of the commercials. Aren’t you?

And what football party would you host if there weren’t the classic nachos?

Here is my favorite and go-to recipe I take and am always asked for.

Trying to keep down fat and not using beef, I love making Chicken Taco Nachos. Very easy to make and oh so good.  Make sure you have enough ingredients because these will be asked for all during the game. I cook my chicken in the crockpot or Instant Pot which usually does quite a few breasts so I can use some for my recipe and store the other in the freezer. Cooking them in the crockpot or Instant Pot means I don’t have to stand over them to cook and can take care of other things, especially if I am hosting the party.

I am enjoying more and more having my own mixed seasonings in my pantry instead of something I can get from the store and I have no idea what’s in it.  All the spice ingredients for the Taco Seasoning are pretty much a pantry staple.
