Attention Tailgaters and Sports Fans of All Sorts: Quick N Easy Salsa

Here you go avid tailgaters.... football fanatics... and sports fans of all sorts! This is a quick and easy recipe for an amazing salsa! It is a simple recipe that can be made the night before or even the day of a big game! A few ingredients and a food processor makes for one perfect tailgating snack!

I used the tortilla scoop chips, but you can use all sorts of chips for this. I also used tortillas and dipped those into the salsa. The recipe calls for a can of Rotel tomatoes. I had no idea what these were until my mom showed me. They have about 3 or 4 different "degrees of heat" that you can choose from. I chose to use the mild, which adds just a little kick to the salsa. If you like a lot of heat, then I would use the hot Rotel tomatoes. This was a fun recipe to make and one that was so simple even the least experienced tailgater could make it!
Enjoy!

Quick N Easy Cinnamon Rolls

I realized that I have not done a breakfast post, so while I was in North Carolina, I tried a new cinnamon roll recipe. I had seen a version of this recipe on a website, but I decided to try and make it my own! This is the perfect recipe for that time when you maybe only have 20 minutes to make a breakfast.

To make the rolls you simply take a crescent rolls, sprinkle with cinnamon and roll! Drizzle with a little icing and you are done! It really is that simple! One thing that I would try the next time I make these, is sprinkle the cinnamon while I roll them. I think they would taste better because the cinnamon would be a little more spread out. Another little idea I would like to try is stuffing the rolls with something like apple, to make a cinnamon apple roll.

This was a short and sweet post, but next up.... quick n easy salsa! We are getting ready for football season!

Enjoy!
