No-Bake Recipes for a Super Bowl Party

Do you have a microwave? A freezer of some kind? Good.

For Super Bowl Sunday, why not impress your pals with a few of these recipes for a party or quiet gathering around the TV!



Ranch Crackers

A friend of mine, Leah, gave me this "recipe." There aren't very precise instructions because it is quite hard to mess up! Enjoy!

1 bags of oyster crackers
1 packet of ranch dressing powder
1 stick of butter

Melt half of the butter in a small bowl (or coffee mug). Pour the butter over your oyster crackers which should be in a microwave-safe bowl. Pour the ranch dressing packet over the crackers and mix well. You want everything to be coated evenly, and add a little more butter if needed. Also, you could add another ranch packet if you want it. Some people like less, some people like more.

Put your mixture in the microwave for just a minute. You aren't cooking it, its more to dry the crackers. It isn't really a science, so you can't mess it up. Don't keep it in a closed container, because you don't want them to get soggy.

Classic Rotel

I'm not sure why I'm adding this, but in case you've never heard of it, then here it is! Its a cheese dip! Great with tortilla chips!

1 can Rotel tomatoes
1 lb. Velveeta cheese

Cut cheese into 1 inch cubes and pour Rotel tomatoes over and microwave until melted, stirring occasionally. Don't over-heat! Just melt it and serve it with chips!



Lemonade Pie

This is by far the easiest pie I've ever made. It takes very little effort and tastes pretty good. I made this for a study party for my Blount class!

1 pre-made graham cracker pie crust (on the baking aisle!)
1 can sweetened condensed milk
1 – 8 oz. Cool Whip
1 – 6 oz can frozen lemonade, thawed (do not use pink lemonade)

Thaw cool whip and lemonade. Combine sweetened condensed milk, cool whip and lemonade in bowl until thoroughly mixed. Pour into graham cracker pie crust. Put in freezer until set firm.

Serve within minutes of removing from freezer or things could get messy!



Have fun (and go Steelers!).
