Answer 1

Here are a few E-Z recipes ....might find something you can use.

Good Luck & enjoy.

COLA CHICKEN

(And more variations of recipe)

My favorite using this recipe.....Chicken Wings & Ribs.

4 skinless, boneless chicken b*****s

1 cup catsup

1 12oz. can cola (pepsi, coke, etc.)

Put chicken in a non-stick pan.

Mix together catsup and cola, pour over chicken.

Bring to a boil. Cover, reduce heat and cook 45 minutes.

(turning chicken a few times, while cooking...to prevent from sticking to pan)

Uncover, turn up the heat and continue to cook until the sauce

becomes thick and adheres to the chicken.

It turns into the most incredible BBQ sauce. Yummmm!

You can double the recipe and use more pieces of

chicken....wings...would be ideal...add some hot sauce....presto "Hot Wings"!  

I have used Ribs, just as good.

I tried this recipe with 'meatballs'....was equally

as good...served over rice.

I found another variation.....omit the catsup and add a small jar of Salsa (any variety).

I have tried using Salsa (omitting the catsup....not).

You'd think a recipe with only '3' ingredients couldn't be messed up....wouldn't you??

Well...while I was preparing to fix the 'Cola Chicken' recipe

using Salsa.....I was also trying to carry on a conversation with my

husband...(just proves...I can't do two things at once)....mixed Salsa & Catsup (before I realized I was supposed to leave out the catsup) & Cola........still turned out really tasty (to me)...might be a little sweeter than some of you like.

I fixed chicken wings, (using the above recipe)

but...I added the spices from a MILD (I don't care for "HOT") Buffalo Wings packet...(the kind you get to bake in the oven).....I thought it was really good.....(but you/I can't find a 'bad' way to fix chicken).

Finally....!! I fixed the 'SALSA' chicken......that's good , too.

Another (bright)idea.....I thought of trying......replace the

catsup with a bottle of Shrimp Cocktail Sauce...and add a bag of (pop corn) shrimp.....!

Fixed the shrimp with cocktail sauce......eh...wasn't all that

great...was OK...probably won't be fixing it again.

Also tried beef stew cuts......that was pretty good.....I can see

myself making this again.

Served both over rice.....think the stew cuts would have been just as

good over noodles.

Try little cocktail weiners/sausages…for appetizers.

CRUNCHY ONION CHICKEN

1 1/3 cups French’s Original French Fried Onions

4 boneless skinless chicken breast halves

1 egg, beaten

LIGHTLY CRUSH:

Onions in a plastic bag.

Pour over meat mixture.

Bake 45 minutes at 350 degrees.

CHILLI DOG CASSEROLE

1 pkg. (8) hot dogs (use more if you like)

1 can Chilli (15 oz. without beans, use more if you want)

Until meat is tender.

The first time I mad it I didn’t have the Italian Dressing mix….so I added a pkg. of Onion Soup Mix….I have to say I liked that better.

If you use more water you might want to add more Brown Gravy mix….to make a thicker sauce. Was gonna add

potatoes and carrots…but never got around to it.

Answer 3

Good day,

what about Texas chili or chopped BBQ sandwiches, or 6' sub sandwiches, asst tamales. Guess you can tell I'm in Texas...

A lady in Houston make a chili mix called Sin chili , which is to die for. Chopped BBQ, slow cook a brisket and chop and add fav, sauce and put back in slow cooker, serve w/ buns and chips and rock on

Answer 4

U gotta have hot wings, ribs & oysters (if anyone likes them). My husbands friend is into the UFC fights and what his wife did for him is have the girls wear Hooters t-shirts (since Hooters sponsor UFC...am I correct?) & have everyone bring there favorite hot wings.

Answer 5

crackers and cheese are classics, but hot wings rule. lots of hot wings, and the hot, hot kind, because this is ufc, you know, lots of testosterone and guys do dumb sh*t when that is peaked out. i'm not a beer drinker, but it seems as if beer is more appropriate at this type of function. a variety of chips would be good too. doritos, pop corn, cheetos...

Answer 6

The traditional stuff that's easy to eat!

Hotwings (maybe varying in spice levels or flavors)

Chips & Dips (you can a lot of different dip recipes that are fantastic at http://www.recipezaar.com)

Mini-burgers?  Kind of a lot of work for quick bites, but cool!

Veggies & Dip (the classic break from junk)

Note:  Hotwings can be a horrible mess, depending on how drunk and how "touchy" the people are...

Answer 7
