Big Game Entertaining with Chef Jamie Gwen

The Big Game is all about snacking but you can keep your healthy eating routine by adding California cheese, cottage cheese and yogurt. They are filling and rich in the natural high-quality protein we get from dairy, and we get to enjoy the flavors of the snacks we love. In fact, I used California Cottage Cheese in my high-protein dip with veggies. Nutritious and budget-friendly Real California Dairy Products come in a variety of styles, even lactose free. I look for the Real California Milk seal because it means supporting local farmers who are dedicated to sustainability. Visit www.realcaliforniamilk.com/recipes for fresh recipe ideas.

Tiger COL-A40U Multi-Cooker
The compact cooker for daily use. A 2.6 qt (2.5 L) multi-cooker that allows you to make great-tasting dishes without hassle.
From BBQ pulled pork to Mac N Cheese, I like to serve the classics and a classic 100-year-old Japanese company, Tiger Corporation makes it easy. The new Tiger Multicooker has 8 different manual menu settings from traditional rice cooking to the new Slow Cook, Sous Vide and Sauté. Plus it has 21 additional programmed menus for a variety of dishes. The pre-programmed buttons automatically adjust the cooking time and heat settings for each dish. It self-cleans and the pressure control cap and condensation collector are dishwasher-safe, for quick and easy clean-up.

Welch's Concord Grape Jelly
Welch’s fruit spreads, jams, and jellies are family favorites that add vibrant fruit flavors to any meal.
As a chef, I’m always looking for ingredients that make my work easier and one of my chef's tips is to balance savory foods with a little sweetness. I made these chicken wings with Welch’s Concord Grape Jelly for an easy win. It's made with real, U.S.-grown Concord grapes, and supports hundreds of American family farmers - 100% of Welch’s profits go back to their grower-owners. The unmistakably bold, sweet, straight-off-the vine goodness is a natural fit for Big Game spreads and it brings home that familiar, feel-good flavor while you're cheering on your favorite team with friends and family.
