I’m not exactly into the Superbowl for the sport of football. Sure, I get into it as much as I can, but really, I’m about the food.

Growing up, it was sharing a bag of Cheetos with my dad. Now, it’s making some delicious things that I don’t normally put together. Rob’s request this year is wings…that’ll be a new experience for me.


Before I get into the food, I just wanted to recommend that you follow the same  tips you used to stay healthy through Thanksgiving especially if you’re more into the food like I am!

Here are a few dishes that could definitely work if you have a bunch of people coming over for the game. They would be best if you are going the heavy appetizers route, which is my favorite way to eat. A little of this and a little of that.

Sweet and Spicy Meatballs – Keep a crockpot on simmer and serve with toothpicks.

Skinny Veggie Dinner Dip – Serve with tortilla chips, extra sour cream, and a bit of guacamole.

Pizza Quick Rolls – Quick, easy, and perfect if you have kids around.

Sweet and Spicy Cashew Chicken Nuggets – Cut chicken into smaller, thinner chunks to make it go further.

Cauliflower Tots – Another fun dish for kids (and adults). Serve with a light dressing-type dip.

Iron Packed Spinach Bites – A good one for your more health-concious guests, and a fun way to add a bit more green to your spread.

Chocolate Strawberry Banana Bites – On a stick means no messy ice cream scooping or oven warming.
