Super Bowl food is the best food, right?!
When I think of Super Bowl food, my mind immediately goes to things like bar food, cheesy dips, potato skins, onion rings, wings, chili, sandwiches, and a lineup of slow cookers.
And I absolutely, positively cannot even think of a get together without an assortment of sweet treats – brownies, cookies, bars, Rice Krispie treats, and cupcakes, of course.

TELL ME! What is your all-time favorite Super Bowl food?
The Hissy Fit Dip was a big hit. Thanks for sharing. #SuperBowlLIV
I will make slider cheeseburgers with chopped cooked bacon, carmelized onions, mayo and mustard and a pickle on top! Just watched on local TV show and looks delicious, plus all easy to find ingredients.

Homemade guacamole and simple tortilla chips are my near favorite of all time. I never get tired of avocados and out here in CA we get some beautiful avocados almost all year long either from CA or Mexico are the best Haas…that’s the best fresh guac😊 ….2nd fave dip the old school French onion soup and sour cream dip with ruffly potato chips…watching pro golf over football though. Sorry..I like watching golf.
Thanks for all the options! What’s your fave and what typically finishes first?!
I agree. You can not have a football party with out dip, wings, and dessert.
Hi Michelle,
I would love to have an instant-read thermometer because I love to cook and bake.
I would use an instant-read thermometer for testing many things, but mostly I would like to use when I make breads to verify that the yeast is rigt and the braed is baked all the way through. Â hope that I win. Thanks
