Now that college football season is here, it's time to load up on hearty appetizers for pre-game gatherings. I tested these out on my favorite recipe guinea pigs — my family — at a get-together at my parents' house.
My brother's been trying to eat healthier lately, but he ate his first serving, shook his head, shot me a dirty look, and went back for more anyway. I'll take that as a good sign.
