It's that time of year again! My husband is a die hard Packers fan, which of course means I'll probably be rooting for the Steelers. I've also been working on my cheesy introductory lines, so here we go. Move over cocktail weenies, lookout gloopy cheese dip(and cheesy blog writers). This year for the Superbowl let's kick off our food frenzy with some out of the ordinary pallet teasers. These two recipes are sure to unite even the most divided of fan filled households. Go pack go!

Shrimp Sliders

10 size 8-12 shrimp
10 Hawaiian rolls
1 tablespoon seafood seasoning
1/2 cup of Panko bread crumbs
1/3 cup of mayonnaise
1/4 cup ketchup
1 teaspoon of wasabi
3 leafs Boston bib lettuce
10 banana pepper rings
10 toothpicks
4 cups of water

Put water and seafood seasoning into a medium sized pot. Bring water to a boil and add shrimp. Cook shrimp until bright pink on all sides. Remove from water and peel.
In a small bowl combine mayonnaise, ketchup and wasabi. Tear the lettuce into 10 pieces. Cut the dinner rolls in half like a hamburger bun. Toss shrimp in mayonnaise sauce.

Place a piece of lettuce onto the bottom half of each bun. Place a piece of shrimp on top of each piece of the lettuce. Sprinkle Panko bread crumbs on top of shrimp. Put top bun of top of the shrimp. Put the toothpick through each slider and put a banana pepper ring on the top of the toothpick.
