Need Recipes from Vegas Bash, Please!!

[MeganA 35]

Hello fellow vegas bash bandsters. My friend Brigid has a hankering for the chips and margaritas that Lisa and Carol made for the bash...

Lisa- how did you make those DELICIOUS chips?

Carol- is the margarita mix a secret or can you share it? They were FANTASTIC!!!

Thanks in advance...

I believe Carol is currently in Vegas, So I hope I can help with the margarita's

I did this a couple of times and they turned out good.

3 parts tequila

1 part triple sec

6 parts margarita mix

Mix together and put into container (or baggies) place in freezer over night.

Alchohol does not freeze but the mix does, thus makes a slush.

Carol concur on this when you can.

Have fun

OK - here's the easy but delicious margarita recipe (I still have some in the freezer if anyone wants some).

3 large bottles of Jose Cuervo Margarita Mix

1 large bottle of Jose Cuervo dark tequila

1 and 1/2 cups of triple sec

lemon or lime juice (optional -- only if you like tart margaritas)

Stir together and either leave in large container with a lid (I use a 12 quart container) or use smaller containers. Quart size freezer bags work very well and then the fit in a cooler to take with you. (also stack better in the freezer, just DO NOT overfill, allow room for expansion).

When serving, leave out a few minutes, stir well, and ENJOY!!

Also, if anyone needs the crab dip recipe, let me know.

Carol’s Crab Dip Recipe

1 lb of cleaned and cracked crab meat (I buy it at a fish market)

1 block of cream cheese (room temperature)

4-6 stalks of celery (chopped fine)

6-8 stalks of green onion (sliced very fine)

1 cup Mayonnaise

6-8 shakes of Tabasco

1 pkg Gelatin

1 tbsp Water

1 can cream of mushroom Soup

garlic powder to taste (optional)

Heat can of mushroom Soup just till boiling. Remove from heat and add Gelatin (already mixed with 1 tbsp water). Cool slightly.

In a mixer beat cream cheese and mayonnaise together. Add all other ingredients except crab. Mix in soup mix and then add crab.

Put in mold or container. Should cool overnight or at least most of the day.

Serve with crackers (triscuit or wheat thins are best) or with sliced baguette. (or for bandsters plain with a fork is great).

Thanks again Carol

Thanks all. I make the crab dip probably once a month. It is such a bandster friendly food. And the margaritas are always in the freezer, but I very seldom drink any. It just seems that when friends visit, they know they are there and ask for them. I guess all I know are a bunch of lushes.
