Announcing an Event - Game Night Party Recipes
Hi everyone! The holidays are over, and the New year has begun, so it's time to start with some more fun! Have you seen people discussing and planning to buy HDTV's (High-Definition TV) lately, and switching from Dish or Cable to DirecTV?? Well, that's because it's the sporty time of the year, and the biggest event in United States is around the corner - YES, the mighty NFL Super Bowl to be played on Feb 3rd 2008 in Arizona!! I will admit it upfront, I'm not a huge fan of NFL, simply because I think it's too violent:) But I do like the strategy part in the game, and believe it or not, when you have a group of friends and enthusiasts surrounding you in your room, rooting at every shot, you are sure to get carried away by the excitement in the atmosphere! So, before you start thinking why I'm blabbbering about Super Bowl on my Food Blog, let me tell you about my intention to host a "Game Night Party" event. Even in India and Australia, Cricket is on in full-swing, and for most of the people, irrespective of their location, Friday Nights are generally Poker Nights!:)So, in celebration of Sports, I have decided to host an Event which will gather simple yet delicious recipes that can help you plan a stress-free Game Night. I also know that a lot of events are out there in the blogosphere, and it can get tiring to keep up with all of them. So I am tweaking the rules a bit here to allow for previously-posted recipes. The purpose of this Event is to gather and share party recipe ideas so that it's beneficial to everyone; I don't want to stress my blogger friends and readers than they already are:) So go on, read the rules, and start sending in your Favourite Simple and Quick-to-Make Recipes!
This event is completed. Please take a look at the Game Night Party Recipes Roundup for some delicious, and easy finger-food recipes! Thanks everyone for participating!

But NFL is on Feb 3rd, deadline is before that!! I am making cheese Fondue this year!
Usually, I make Mexican food or chicken wings anyway, so it doesn't matter. I will see if I have any veg ones in my blog or I will make one for you!:)
We didn't understand Football at first either and then we got huge HD TV and then everything changed, we love it now, specially kids enjoy the game ad the food too!!They get to eat in the living room sitting on the carpet on that day!:P
Congratulations on winning the beautiful book!:)
very different idea ...Will surely participate on it .....
Sylvia - thanks, and start cooking:)
Helen - only the ones who participate get to see the roundup:D
Deepa - thanks:) look forward to your entry!
Asha - you are right! HDTV does change things! hehehe...and you'll make a veg dish specially for me! you are such a sweetheart:)
Sounds like lots of fun Mansi! Looks liek this is my first time here... unless u changed the look of the blog anytime recently :-) You have a lovely blog! And i'll try my best to participate in this fun event!
I am in! I first thought about the pumpkin enchiladas but they wouldn't be too easy to prepare on the big night. It's not that they are real difficult to make, it is just messy. Maybe some kind of veggie molletes? Is cheese allowed? I don't think so, well I will have to think about this. I like it when it is really a challenge.
Great blog, sorry it took me so long to come visit but with so many new projects for the new year time has been tight, but I am subscribing right now. BTW congratulations on the award, those cookies look delicious!
Hi Latha - welcome girl, and great to know you are participating!
Ben - cheese is totally allowed! and thanks for bringing it to my attention; just no meat or seafood:) looking forward to your entry, and thanks for all the kind words, and for sparing some time to comment:D
looks good Mansi:) so eggs and cheese both are allowed, right? I'll come up with something
-Angel
Congrats Mansi on being a winner....a great beginning to the new year :)
The cookie was very pretty too!!

Thanks for the nice words on my blog Mansi! I've been great fan of your blog for a long time. I love your recipes and the way you present them. Great work.. keep them coming!!
Yes, Mansi, I can whip up a vegetarian snack for this. Sounds like great fun. I'm not into football, but the SB is all about the food and commercials.

Excellent idea Mansi, can't wait to rake through my recipes now :)

Hi Mansi,

This sounds like fun. I'm so intrigued to see what everyone submits. I think I may have an entry of my own to submit.
Great planning. I miss the game night as i am no longer in the US and i loved foot ball :). I will surely take part! I cant wait to take a look at the round up. It will be fantastic for hosting future parties as well :)

Hi Mansi - I'd love to participate. Thanks for the invite! You know, I've no idea about the Super Bowl (bar what I've learned from The Simpsons over the years...), but I'm Australian and know something of the need for snacks with your drinks during a big, passionte sporting event!

Thanks for inviting me to participate. This is the first time I've been to your blog, really GREAT! I'll oput on my thinking cap and apron (yeah, right) and see what I can whip up.
Mansi, thanks for the invite...snack has been submitted!
Hi Mansi, thanks for your invitation and sweet comments on our blog! I've never watched Super Bowl, but I did go to a European football match once, and it was pretty interesting! I think we had muffins as a snack then, and the other spectators were mostly having grilled sausages...
Your blog is just lovely, I'll check back soon!
