Super Bowl Recipes

Favorite snacks and treats for the big game

The Super Bowl is this weekend and we'll be hosting a small viewing party as usual. This is the fifth year that my husband and I have been together for the Super Bowl (our first time ever entertaining together was for a Super Bowl party at his old apartment in 2010) and we've picked up some tips over the years. We keep the guest list small so that everyone has a comfortable spot to watch the game, serve everything on paper plates for easy clean up, and make food that can be prepared in advance so we're not stuck in the kitchen during the party. For the menu, we like to serve a bunch of different foods buffet-style so that people can help themselves throughout the day. It's important to not serve anything too messy or difficult to eat (two bites is ideal) and choose things that can be eaten at room temperature or kept warm over low heat on the stove.

Here are some great recipes for snacks and treats for easy entertaining on Super Bowl Sunday. If you want more inspiration, check out my Pinterest page or last year's post.


Super Bowl Party Recipes:

• Homemade Hummus - It's always a good idea to have a healthy option for guests who are watching their calorie intake.
• Warm Spinach Artichoke Dip - Cheesy, creamy, and comforting spinach dip will be a party favorite.
• Baked Sweet Potato Fries - These fries can be prepped in advance and then baked in the oven while you're watching the game. No messy and time-consuming deep frying necessary.
• Roasted Shrimp Cocktail - Juicy shrimp with a tangy and slightly spicy cocktail sauce.
• White Chocolate & Buttered Popcorn Cookies - These cookies are an addicting blend of sweet and salty.
