With the Superbowl looming, I’m already thinking about party food.  But not baby carrots and store bought hummus with a thousand ingredients.  Something that feels homemade.  That oozes love because it’s so tasty, so satisfying, and so full of real good stuff.  Something that you can just picture people saying OMG you made that?!

Why yes, you did, you awesome little thing.  You need just a handful of basic ingredients, three quick steps, and five minutes.

It looks beautiful and can be served with either crackers or veggies.
