Are you ready for tonight?
Here’s my spread made completely (almost) out of holiday leftovers.
Crowder Pea Bacon Hummus. You know, since I just so happened to have seasoned my peas with bacon.
Deviled Ham Dip
Chicken Parmesan Stuffed Mushrooms.
I also threw in some Brie and Fontina cheeses.
Big, fat green olives. I could eat my weight in those things.
Lots of crackers and shit like that.
Wine.
Oh, and more wine.
Here’s how I made it all:
