SIDE NOTES:

~  Cut up some carrot & celery sticks, and dole out the creamy blue.

~  I have not made these with actual wings, so the cooking time may vary if that’s what you’re using.

~  Yes, that plate is on the snow-covered picnic table on the deck.  Every time I make this, daylight is practically gone (this happens often in the winter around dinner time).  Just made this tonight.  Even though it was only 5:15 – it was still too dark inside, so I did what I had to do to get the shot   =)  Thought maybe someone would want to give this a go for Superbowl Sunday.  It’s ridiculously easy to make!

~  If cutting this recipe in half, an 8 x 8 pyrex works well.

~  Enjoy your Sunday, whether you’re watching football or not  =)
