45 Super Bowl Recipes for Super Bowl XLV

Image Source: NFL.com
The Super Bowl is one week from today and I can’t even pretend to be unbiased. It’s all Black and Gold here in Pittsburgh, and I can’t wait to wave my Terrible Towel next Sunday! Needless to say, the Super Bowl will be a very big deal around these parts, but even if your team isn’t playing, it’s still a great excuse to whip up some of your favorite foods and enjoy time with friends. To commemorate the 45th Super Bowl, I have put together 45 of what I think are the best game day menu items on the site. There are dips, appetizers, decorated sugar cookies, some main dishes, and of course crowd-pleasing sweets. Each day this coming week I will also feature a new dip or appetizer as a potential to add to your menu. I love party food! Enjoy perusing the recipes
