Favorite Sides - Perfect Companions

Sue's Coleslaw
A true staple during the season. Look for it at several games.

Soups & Stews - Ideal for Post Game on a cold Saturday

Chicken Spezzatino
A new favorite revised from Giada de Laurentiis' cookbook everydayitalian.

Tomato Sausage Delight
This was the first big hit for the Wolverine Den and remains a perennial favorite. This hearty stew is perfect to warm the crowd in cold weather games, but the requests force this stew to make an early season appearance. Tim modified a Red Gold recipe and Craig has adds his own flair when he makes it at home.

Chicken chowder
One of the first Wolverine Den soups. A little spice with a creamy flavor.

Chipotle Black Bean Soup
A new addition for the 2006 season. This recipe is spicy, but doesn't continue to build in heat. If you can handle the first bite, the reward will be delicious.

Taco Soup
Mexican delicacy in a bowl. Add cheese, sour cream, and crush up some tortilla chips to increase the experience. Another modified Red Gold recipe.

Creamy Chicken with Wild Rice
Another great cold weather soup. This is a recipe from Smucker's "Milk Academy" sales training program (Smucker's owns Eagle Brand Sweetened Condensed Milk and PET Evaporated Milk).
