Fall football eats

As we charge into football season, here are a few easy things I throw together for a buffet on game day:

Bruschetta (a good way to use the basil and tomatoes in your garden)

5-7 tomatoes diced

2 C loose leave Basil

2-3 green onions diced

2-3 garlic cloves roughly chopped

1/4 C olive oil

1 t Kosher salt

place basil in a food processor and chop for 30 seconds. add the rest of the ingredients and chop for an additional 30 seconds. serve on toasted french bread

shredded chicken

place 3-4 frozen chicken breasts in a crockpot for 3-4 hours. once cooked, shred with a fork. serve with a variety of sauces and deli rounds

Guacamole

2-3 ripe avocados

2 cloves garlic

1 jalapeno pepper

1 t kosher salt

juice from 1/2 a lime

1/8 cup diced tomatoes (optional)

chop and blend until desired consistency is reached. serve with tortilla chips
