Family Game Day Foodie: Arizona Cardinals vs. Seattle Seachickens


It's the final regular season game for the Cardinals, and our hopes of the playoffs are diminished. The good news is that the game is on New Year's Eve, so it'll be a hell of a party and a way to go out!

Sunday will be a marathon, not a sprint. So these two dishes are easy to make and can left our for the game, put away, and then re-served for the NYE party. If there are any leftovers!
