Hey, guys! Can you believe we are already in the middle of August? Seems just like yesterday I was giving you recipes for Christmas. Well, we have another holiday coming up and in this issue I am giving you some recipes for, maybe, your last summer pool party. We have Splash coming up in Austin, and this old girl is planning to make a splash off the houseboat in my two-piece Speedo! Can’t you just picture it now?

CHICKEN WAFFLE BACON SLIDERS
32 pieces boneless chicken wings
1 can Pillsbury Grands (homestyle with honey butter)
16 strips of bacon, cut in half
1 cup maple syrup
Baking spray
Cook wings in oven per directions. Preheat waffle iron and spray with baking spray. Open and separate biscuits. Cut each round in to four quarters. Cook on waffle iron until browned. Layer together each slider, one waffled biscuit, one-half slice cooked bacon, one wing, drizzle with syrup, top with biscuit. Secure with toothpick.
PHILLY CHEESESTEAK MEATBALL SLIDERS

2 medium red, yellow, green bell peppers cut in 1/4″ thick strips

4 slices (12 ounce package ) Kraft Velveeta cheese

Heat oven to 375 degrees. In large non-stick skillet, heat oil over medium-high heat until hot. Cook bell pepper, onion and grill seasoning in oil, eight to ten minutes. Stir until soft. Slice sheet of dinner rolls in half, horizontally; place bottom in ungreased 13″x9″ baking sheet. Place two meatballs on each roll bottom. Spoon peppers and onions over meatballs. Top with sliced cheese. Place top half over cheese. Brush with melted butter on top of rolls. Bake 20 minutes until cheese is melted. Cut into individual sliders.
