Jessica Simpson Cooks With Cowboys

Wedding bells aren't ringing quite yet, but Jessica Simpson is already a part of the Dallas Cowboys' family. The country songstress, who dates quarterback Tony Romo, is featured in the 'Dallas Cowboys Family Cookbook,' sharing some of her favorite recipes alongside many of the players' wives.

So what does Simpson cook for her honey? Her recipes in the cookbook include Banana Breakfast Fruit Smoothies and No-Fat Broccoli and Cherry Tomatoes. (See the recipes below.) But Romo says his favorite dish is chicken enchiladas.

The 'Dallas Cowboys Family Cookbook' also includes behind-the-scenes photos and witty banter from players and their families. Simpson shows her silly side in the book's biography section, listing her occupation as "hairdresser," while Romo claims to be a "fence builder."

All proceeds from the cookbook go to the Dallas Cowboys Courage House, a home for at-risk children. Click here for more information.



Banana Breakfast Fruit Smoothie

1 banana, peeled, cut into chunks, and frozen
1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
1 1/2 cups orange juice
1 cup ice
2 scoops vanilla ice cream

Combine all ingredients in a blender. Blend, until smooth.


No-Fat Broccoli and Cherry Tomatoes

1/2 bag Broccoli-Wokly-fresh broccoli florets (about 4 cups)
12 ounces (1 pint) cherry tomatoes, stems removed
3/4 cup chicken broth
1/8 teaspoon each salt and coarsely-ground black pepper

Wash broccoli and tomatoes under running water. Cut broccoli into 3/4-inch pieces. Bring broth to a boil, in a 12-inch skillet, over high heat. Add broccoli, salt, and pepper; cook for 2 minutes, stirring occasionally. Push broccoli to edges of skillet, and add tomatoes to center. Cook for 2 minutes, to heat through, shaking pan gently to turn tomatoes. Do not overcook tomatoes, if skin split, tomatoes will be too soft. Season, to taste, and serve.

i don't know what he ever saw in that blond-haired @#$#%^ ! Tony is such a loser....he let America's team down, and Dallas fans can't stand him...He needs to leave so that they can bring in a real quarterback.Donavan Mcnabb or Brett Farve would be great.....Anyone who wants to play football instead of someone who just wants to @#$%^$#@ around with a blonde bimbo!!

She should either marry Romo or get off the scene. She has ruined Romo as a quarterback so far.

OMG... Get off her ass and give her a break please... If she wasn't a celebrity all the trash that is talked about her would never of happened, instead she'd be the hot girl down the street.

I have been a Dallas Cowboy fan since the early 70's. Never have I seen other wives and girlfriends wanting to be in the limelight so much as this one. She is corney and I can't believe Romo is attracted to her. She is just plain, down home, DUMB! And looks every bit of it. Come on Tony, wise up!!!!

I have some of the Dallas Cowboy receipe books and they sound good. Nothing like what Jessica prints. Course, it all must be doing them both good, for both are looking a little pudgy!!

Try living out your lovelife in a fishbowl. Obviously Jessica has something special because she is still with Tony and I am sure he could have his pick. As long as they are happy I don't think it is anyone's place to judge them. You should take a good look at yourself! Some people just can't stand to see someone else actually happy!

You must all be very young and have no experience in real life yet. Get a clue, a spouse, girlfriend, etc. of a player does not determine the kind of game such player will have. Professional athletes have good days and bad days just like the rest of us. And another thing, Tony and Jessica are obviously happy together and whether or not you think the girl has talent, I ca guarantee she's doing SOMETHING a lot more successfully than you are sitting here judging her on a relationship that makes her extremely happy. My best to both of you, Tony and Jess, don't listen to people who have NOTHING better to do with their lives than judge others when they can't even look in the mirror at themselves. Petty and so childish!

What ever happened to that engagement ring Jessica was soooo sure she was getting for Christmas? Just goes to show that just because you "think" (that's a stretch here) you're getting a ring you don't announce it until it's on your finger. Not getting pushed into an engagement is about the smartest thing Romo has done all season.

Tony Roma can really cook. We used to have his restaurant here in Wacko, Taxes. It closed last year, along with Piccadilly, Ryans, Rib Crib, Smokey Bones, Dickeys, etc. Since Wacko/Crawford is associated with Herbert Hoover Bush, the economy has gone to hell here and lots of places have shut down.

OH PLEASE! this dipsh** non talent airhead can't even tell us what REAL chicken taste like LOL LOL. Yeah Jess..please make some E COLI ridden (from NOT washing your hands) TUNA enchilada for your fellow idiot Romo. Classy Carrie is WAY better off without Romo & Nick is MAJOR happy now not dealing with your "airstein" moments. What a******* you two are.
