SIPS:
SIDES/MUNCHIES:

- layered baked Louisiana style chicken nachos
MAIN EATS:
- cherry tomato pizza (vegetarian friendly :)
- hot + sweet sriracha wings (sweet and spicy!)
- baked parmesan chicken wings (savory goodness!)
- maple garlic ginger chicken wings (my favorite and I got these wings featured in a magazine :)

SWEETS:

All you will need are lots of limes!
We had to hand-squeeze all those limes because we’re sans juicer but I’m currently lusting over this nifty melamine reamer!
