24 of the Best Super Bowl Recipes
It’s that time of year again. The glorious end of football season, culminating with the snack party of the year to appease everyone watching, from diehard fans to disinterested onlookers.
Bring on the salty carbs, brownies, bars, bite sized appetizers, munchies, and beer. This girl is ready for alllllll of these things.
The characteristics of all the best super bowl recipes
- Easy to make: Game day recipes should be easy to throw together. Whether that mean they’re made in bowl for easy clean up, able to prep the night before, or can be thrown together with on hand ingredients, they shouldn’t feel like a huge production!
- Shareable: This year might look a little different than your usual Super Bowl party, but that doesn’t mean you can still celebrate and share all the snacks. I love a recipe that can easily be dropped off for a friend and is easy to split between those in your immediate household!
- Perfect for leftovers: The best Super Bowl recipes store well for all those leftovers. It’s no secret that when it comes to big food holidays our eyes are often bigger than our stomachs. Which is why every good super bowl recipe is easy to pop in a container and save for later.
