Happy Super Bowl Weekend! I'm pulling hard for commercials this year. No team affiliation in the pros, I'm more of a college football fan.
I do love the sport of football and since my son is a big Peyton Manning/Broncos fan I am rolling with them. Who are you rooting for?
Since I am headed to New Orleans today for the Rock N' Roll Half Marathon, I wanted to share this recipe I got from a buddy of mine in New Orleans. Great recipe to try for the big game.
Hopefully the four times I've gone running since I signed up will pay off. Don't do this at home kids.
Without further ado, here is your recipe!
