We've Made the ABC News Top 10 Super Foods for Super Bowl Sunday!

Our little slider recipe video is number six on a list of 10 Super Bowl foods as chosen by the ABC News / Health + Wellness Center! Okay, so don't let the name fool you – it wasn't picked for its nutritional value, but for its proven ability to rock your game day buffet table.

Since this is ABC's Health channel, in addition to the recipes, you can check the caloric value of each item so, as they say in the post, "you'll know just how many hours you'll have to spend in dance class, miles you'll have to bike and laps you'll have to swim to work off Sunday's food fest." Don't worry, it will be totally worth it.

This list was written by Monica Nista, and keeper of Mona’s Apple. Enjoy!

Don't forget we have our own list of Super Bowl snacks, including some of the best chicken wing video recipes, ever.

Super Bowl Griling and BBQ Crash Course

Thanks to my just concluded trip to Vegas, I'm still a day or two away from a new recipe video. I've been catching up on my cookbook recipe production and photography, as well as finishing off a very delicious looking "best of Vegas" recap.

In the meantime, here's a series on grilling basics by Chris Lilly. I met Chris while attend Kingsford University last year, and in addition to being a heck of a nice guy, he's a very good teacher. I don't really do cookbook reviews, but I'm a big fan of Chris's Big Bob Gibson's BBQ Book, and have added a link here in case you want to check it out.

Here are some simple, beginner-level instructions for cooking seafood, chicken, pork and beef. Since Super Bowl Sunday is the biggest non-summer grilling day of the year, I figured some of you may pick up a tip or two by checking these out. Enjoy!

I'm finally back in San Francisco after six magical days in Las Vegas. I just started going through the over 700 photos I took, and hopefully a handful will be good enough to share with you. A million thanks to the Las Vegas Convention and Visitors Authority for hosting such an amazing trip. The food and drink were over-the-top great, and I can't wait to finish the recap. Stay tuned!
