We may not know who won the big game yet, but I did eat my fair share of party food and chat about football or at least pretend to know about football.
Each person on our teaching team was asked to bring a tailgate themed dish. I was stumped for inspiration as Mr. R and I aren't really tailgaters. But I turned to the brilliance of the blog-o-sphere and found a Sonic inspired dish on Mimi's Meals.
For those of you who are smart enough to avoid Sonic, you may have never tasted the fatty amazingness of chili tots or a Coney dog. You my friends are the lucky ones.
I however fell prey to Sonic my first month of graduate school. My friend Tiff and I found a Sonic in Metairie, LA and I promptly fell hard for cherry limeade and cheesy tots.
Mr. R swears by the CONEY DOG.
Mimi took the Sonic Coney hotdog and turned it into a dip that can be made in the crockpot.
I followed her recipe, but subbed the cheddar cheese sauce for Velveeta and sliced the hotdogs into bite sized pieces. I also added some diced red onion.
I served mine with Doritos.
And if you save any leftovers for your Sonic loving husband he will love you FOREVER!
I've never eaten an Sonic. Even when we lived in Augusta, GA and had one down the street, I never ate there.
ReplyDeleteI do love tater tots.
And cherry limeade.
You made a good choice. I am not sure anyone SHOULD eat at Sonic. But it does suck me in from time to time.
ReplyDeleteNever eaten there! Don't think I'll ever start. (although a cherry limeade does sound good)
