I recently threw a Sharks themed party to support the San Jose Sharks' game against the L.A. Kings. The Sharks were down two games out of seven, and we really needed to win this one to even up the score. In an attempt to give the Sharks some much needed luck, I decided to host a game viewing party with Sharks themed food for my nearest and dearest Sharks fans.
The Menu:
1) It's "Chili" in the Shark Tank, so let's wrap those "Piggies in the Blanket." (it's a stretch, I know)
This dish was actually a creation of my hubby's. We wrapped beef Hillshire Farms Lit'l Smokies in Pillsbury Crescent Rolls dough. We baked them, then served them with Hormel Chili with Beans. One can of Pillsbury Crescent Rolls is enough to wrap one packet of Lit'l Smokies. We opened the crescent rolls, unrolled the pastry, then divided each triangle into fourths before wrapping them around the Lit'l Smokies. We placed them on an ungreased baking sheet and baked them at 375 degrees F. I didn't pay attention to how long we baked it, but we checked on it every 5 minutes until it was a toasty brown. We warmed the chili in the microwave, then added fresh, diced red onions and shredded cheese. The guests then dipped the pigs in a blanket in the chili before consuming them. Yum....
2) Niemi's Golden Saves (Pucks)-don't ask
