For the next twelve weeks, I will feature a winning recipe to take to your Saturday tailgate party. There are four things I think about before deciding what I want to share with my friends and fellow Razorback fans:
1. Is it quick?
2. Is it delicious?
3. Is it portable?
4. Is it pretty?
Today I am featuring something I’ve made for several tailgate parties. It’s delicious, quick to make, travels well, and does a great job at enticing fans to dig in.
Let’s go with Baked Crab Rangoon’s this week!
For this simple and scrumptious appetizer all you have to do is mix five ingredients together and spoon into won ton wrappers and bake for about 25 minutes total.
I let these babies cool a bit before packing them up to take with me. I place several of the Rangoon’s on a paper plate and place into a large Zip-loc bag. It will probably fill about two to three bags. The Zip-loc's make it great to stack and open up the bags as you need to refill your platter. This way, you can toss everything and not worry about forgetting a platter or dish you need to take home.
I forgot to snap a photo of them packaged in a Zip-loc bag. Forgive my irresponsibility.
I spooned a small amount of Sweet and Sour sauce found near the soy sauce in the Asian isle. It really gives the Rangoon's a sweet kick. I've also tried dipping them in soy sauce, but found I like the sweet taste over the salty taste.
Shout out: Now that you've got a delicious and simple tailgate appetizer to take with you, you need stylish ideas for your attire. Check out this fantastic blog today on Find it Fab it!

1 can (6 oz.) white crab meat, drained
4 oz. (1/2 of 8-oz. pkg.) cream cheese, softened
2 green onions, thinly sliced (reserve more for garnishing)
1/4 cup light mayonnaise

Oh my goodness! These are so pretty and look delicious. I gotta think of a way to serve these at an actual tailgate without the risk of the crab meat spoiling in the heat. Hmmm. Any ideas would be appreciated!
Christi - you should submit your Football Foodie posts to UGABamaBelle's weekly Thursday link up for Saturdays In The South. Your posts are a perfect fit! http://is.gd/siaavF
Happy College Football Kickoff Day!!
Hi, Ally! Thank you so much for your compliment. They are so, so delicious! In hotter weather, I will delicately place them on the top of our cooler and grab a bag of them as needed. That usually works pretty well!

I should start applying that criteria to all of my food! These sound like the perfect little bites for tailgating.
Hi, Christi! Thank you for visiting! You've definitely got to try these Rangoon's soon! You'll have to let me know if you enjoy them as much as I do! :)
I love the stories you tell on your blog! Your children are just precious!
Come back soon! xo, Christi
Hello, Taste and Tell! Ha ha! Isn't that the truth! :) That criteria could certainly be applied to dishes outside of tailgating.
Thanks for coming by! By the way, your zucchini cobbler bars look excellent! Such a great idea as we get closer to fall! I have never baked with zucchini before, but will have to give it a try very soon!
Oh my word, those look delicious!! I cannot wait to try this recipe! Thank you for linking up and sharing it. I am so happy to have found your blog! I will let you know how they turn out!
