I have been busy getting into the Holiday season, but I am back! 

Tonight is Monday night football, a much loved night for football lovers.  I am, of course, a New England Patriots fan, but I have a confession to make.... I am also a New York Giants fan!  One of my former students, Rosalie Cincotta, is married to The Giants #77 Kevin Boothe.  Joe and I were lucky to attend their wedding, and have loved watching Kevin become the fabulous player he is today.

Football means pickies! A chicken wing gets hot when you turn it on. One of my husbands favorite finger food is my chicken wings.  They are easy, but delicious!!!  Give them a try at your next football party.  Make sure to have plenty of napkins on hand.  They are sticky, gooey goodness!

Sweet and Sour Wings

4 lbs. chicken wings, rinsed and patted dry
1 bottle of Wishbone Russian Dressing
1 jar of appricot jam
1 package of onion soup mix
salt and pepper to taste
green onion for garnish

Preheat oven to 375.  Put your wings on a cookie sheet and season with salt and pepper.  Bake for about 45 minutes.  Remove wings from oven and drain any fat or liquid that has collected.  Mix dressing, jam and soupmix well.  pour over wings and coat evenly.  Put wings back into oven and bake an additional 30 minutes.  If wings are not browned enough, run under broiler for 2 minutes.  Remove from oven and plate.  Garnish with chopped green onions.
