Creative food craft ideas
First, how clever to dye popcorn your team colors (for those of you with “team colors” since I’d probably have to make pink popcorn for my kid). Second, there are so many free football party printables that go along with this (for those of you who throw parties to watch football). Find the original post HERE at the Hostess with the Mostess blog, spotted on Worthy of the Prize. You’ll find plenty more ideas for tailgating, too, HERE. Thanks, Amanda, for the tip!
A quick, creamy breakfast with fresh fruit added on top
Smoothie bowls are one of those beautiful breakfasts that feel healthy and a little indulgent at the same time. Thick, cold, creamy, and pretty enough that you almost don’t want to eat them… almost.
The Ninja Slushie Maker takes all the effort out of it.
Instead of dealing with frozen fruit bricks or blenders that complain loudly, you simply mix your yoghurt base, chill it, and let the Ninja turn it into the perfect thick smoothie-bowl texture — no ice required.
If you are like me and come addicted to these smoothie bowls then you will want to invest in these double walled bowls, this is my favorite brand and these have been great.
Then you top it with your fresh fruit afterwards so the bowl stays thick, cold, and spoon-worthy.
It’s easy, quick, and a lovely way to start the day.
Yoghurt freezes into a silky, firm slush — similar to soft-serve but healthier and lighter. Because the machine creates the icy texture itself (instead of relying on ice cubes), the mixture never becomes watery or gritty.
Just smooth, cold, creamy perfection you can decorate to your heart’s content.
Once you learn this base recipe, you can create endless flavour combinations.
This base has enough body to hold granola, berries, and nut butter without sinking.
Use vanilla yoghurt as your base. Top with raspberries, strawberries, and a sprinkle of granola.
Add a splash of coconut milk to the base. Top with mango, pineapple, kiwi, and toasted coconut flakes.
Mix 1 tablespoon cocoa powder or chocolate protein powder into the base. Top with banana slices and a peanut-butter drizzle.
Prepare the yoghurt base the night before and store it in small jars.
In the morning, just pour one jar directly into the Ninja Slushie Maker and you’ve got a thick, cold, ready-to-top breakfast in minutes.
Thanks for the tips, and for all the printables! I’m having a huge opening weekend blowout for all my friends and coworkers at DISH, and have been looking for ideas just like this. The best suggestion I’ve found so far though is to try and have more than one game going. I tried this last year, to critical acclaim, and this year, now that I have the DISH Hopper, it will be even easier. It has three tuners, which allows us to watch three different games, live, on three separate TVs at the same time. Our guests support a bunch of different teams, and we wanted to make sure everyone got a chance to see their squad in action.
