Confession time: not quite sure which teams are playing in the big game this year. Like millions of others across America, I’m approximately 0% interested in the game. Since my day job is in Marketing, I’m looking forward to the commercials, but more so, the food.
A couple of weeks ago we decided we’d host the festivities this year, and menu planning began pretty much immediately. I am a sucker for snack food, and sporting events {while painfully boring for me, usually} are a good excuse to chow down. As always, this weekend I’ll lean on some of my old standbys, but I’m also excited to try some new recipes!
Meatballs — this is the first stop I always make in the buffet line. Ob. Sessed. And, with three ingredients, anyone can pull of this dish!
Velveeta Cheese Dip — if you can dip a chip into it…sign me up. And, one of my all-time favorites…what party is complete without cheese dip?
Loaded Potato Pinwheels — I’d pretty much eat a shoe if it was wrapped in a crescent roll. Put bacon on it and it’s a no brainer!
Easy Cheesy Buffalo Dip — a “not-so-messy” way to enjoy your wings on Super Bowl Sunday.
Game Day Guacamole — avacados are healthy, right?
Oreo Football Cookie Balls — I’m more of a savory snacker, but at the end of the night, I always need just a couple bites of something sweet. Plus, who can resist at least ONE “theme-y” thing!
Julie, You are a CRAZY woman! And your article is making my mouth water uncontrollably. I finally got around to “liking” the Mom’s page (even though I’m only a mom to furbabies at the moment), and I love it! Lemme know if you need any articles posted for dog mom’s, I’m an expert.
p.s. my construction blog will be houseofhampel.blogspot.com, I know you wanted to check it out! So far, only one post because Winter Storm Leon interrupted some thangs. Jerk. XOXO,
Amanda

this looks amazing!
YUM. These sound delish! I agree, bring me a bowl of Rotel cheese dip and some chips and it is a PARTY.
I also have no idea which teams are playing in the Super Bowl. 🙂
I like the football, but I definitely like the food too! Sounds like you have a great plan! Thanks for the ideas.
Nice round up of recipes Julie! I’m going lazy this year — veggies and a box of brownies 🙂
I made these. O.M.G. is all I can say:
