Game Day Recipes – Chicken Wings and Cajun Pasta Salad

Short and sweet post for me today…one of those weeks!

I was able to get the recipe for those tasty wings we had over the weekend.

Thanks Suzette and Josh!

Chicken Wings
Recipe from Suzette

2 lbs chicken wings
1 cup olive oil
1 1/2 tsp dry lemon pepper seasoning salt
1 1/2 tsp dry dill seasoning (Or look for a seasoning called “It’s A Dilly” which has it all)
Dry Ranch Dressing Packet
Fresh Ground Pepper

Combine oil, lemon pepper seasoning and dill seasoning in bowl. Pour over chicken wings and let marinate for 4-6 hours.

Place wings in an oven pan covered w/foil and sprinkle liberally with Dry Ranch Dressing packet and fresh ground pepper….cook 425 degree for about 35-40 minutes. Watch them closely! Serve with Ranch dressing and cut celery.

And here’s the recipe for the pasta salad I put together over the weekend. Lots of crunchy veggies and great flavor!

Combine ingredients for salad in large bowl. In small bowl, whisk together ingredients for dressing. Fold dressing into pasta salad and combine gently. Enjoy!
