Popcorn is such a handy food because you can do so much with it.  You can eat with butter, covered in almond bark, or even as tasty appetizers!  I love creative food ideas and this Pittsburg Popcorn will soon be a favorite at your football party!

Before I get to the recipe video, I want to talk about the big game day.  I’m sure many of you know by now that I’m a HUGE football fan so I’ve tried to share tons of recipes and fun game ideas & tips for hosting a football party.   Now, as a Texan, I clearly support the Cowboys, who have had a pathetic year so I’m left with only two choices; the Packers and the Steelers.  Great.  I’ve decided that I won’t choose.  I think the Packers are gonna win but I will probably root the Steelers on since they’re the underdog, according the wide world of sports.  And since I’m rootin’ them on, I’m sharing with you a delicious recipe, Pittsburg Popcorn.  Good lord, it just doesn’t get any easier to make and popcorn with bacon??? Well, EVERYTHING is better with bacon right!

As you drool over the SUPER DUPER EASY recipe, tell me what team you want to see win the Super Bowl and what Super Bowl Recipes you’ll be eating during the big game day!   Be sure to check out that link too because there are some other awesome recipes and if you’re like me, you’re always looking for something new to cook up.

Put your caps on, gather your pennants and let’s yell it together, GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO STEELERS!!!

Down, set, HUT HUT VELVEETA!  Yep, it’s that time again, time for the championship football game that all of us football fans anticipate the whole year!  And what comes along with football?? That’s right!!! DIP!  You can’t watch such an exciting football game without dip and chips, come on now.   Not only do we root teams on like the Dallas Cowboys or Indianapolis Colts, but also our own home town six-man football team, the Highland Hornets.  We paint our faces and went to the State championship game last year but lost.  Good game though.

I have used Velveeta for what feels like forever in many diverse recipes like Shrimp Stroganoff Casserole but I think many folks associate Velveeta with dip. The two go hand in hand after all and you can’t have a football party without it!

As one of the 2010 Velveeta Kitchenistas, I’ll be bringing you vlogs all year, this being the first one.  I do a few personal vlogs that are me rambling but doing a recipe was a challenge and while my video isn’t’ the best, I have confidence that my future ones will be awesome!

Please keep in mind when watching the video that I’m new at cooking in front of the video. Also keep in mind that my teens were cracking me up over and over again so I ended being a little more serious in the final cut that I intended. My next ones will get better, promise!

This Velveeta dip consists of only 3 ingredients, with on optional ingredient, making it very affordable to feed a crowd.  It also literally takes less than 10 minutes to make.  It’s so easy and so good!
