Game Night

My family has been travelling a lot lately, so I have had the house to myself quite often. A few weekends ago I hosted game night. Friends I have known since high school and brand new friends came over for food, drinks, and games.

We watched the Olympics as we played Catchphrase and Apples to Apples, two of my favorite games. But not before we enjoyed Blueberry Lime Margaritas and Mint Chocolate Cookies. The Margaritas were only 125 calories per serving, so I didn't feel as guilty about the cookies:) The Margarita recipe came from Eatingwell.com:

Blueberry-Lime Margarita

2 cups ice
1 cup frozen blueberries
1 cup blueberry nectar (I couldn't find it, so I substituted with a Blueberry Smoothie Drink)
1/4 cup seltzer
2 tablespoons frozen limeade
1 tablespoon lime juice
3 ounces tequila
1 lime wedge
Coarse salt

Combine ice, blueberries, smoothie, seltzer, limeade, lime juice and tequila in a blender and blend until smooth. Rub rim of 2 glasses with lime wedge and dip in salt. Divide the margarita between the prepared glasses and serve.
