Day 21: Super Bowl Sunday

I made the Memphis Slow Cooker Pork tonight to serve as sliders at the Super Bowl get-together. Unfortunately (or fortunately) so did my friend, so we've had 4 lbs of pork to eat this week. While yummy at first, it will be a while before I make those again. A little burned out on pork. Here are some of my other favorite Super Bowl dishes. My belief is there's an unwritten forgiveness policy on eating high caloric food on Super Bowl Sunday. If that's not something you normally do, today's the day. Tomorrow is Monday so you can get back on the health kick if that's your thing.
