Football treats for the family
Twitter See All Email

With Super Bowl fast approaching, many families are trying to plan their football-menu for this Sunday. Here are a few tasty treats I came up with—munchies that will be sure to score you a touchdown with your pigskin lovin’ clan.

Half-Time Rice Krispies – Make cocoa Rice Krispies into a football shape. Create laces with icing and enjoy during the half-time show.

Mini-Football Meatloaf – Mold meatloaf into football shapes and draw on the laces with ketchup or BBQ sauce.

Fourth-Quarter Mac ‘n’ Cheese – Fill ramekins with your favourite mac and cheese recipe, top with breadcrumbs and bake. These individual servings will allow your family members to eat in front of the game without making too much of a mess.

Hail-Mary Chili – When your team is in the lead, head to the kitchen for a bowl of chili served with a side of grilled cheese football-shaped sandwiches.

Chips and Dips – So many options here…hummus, black bean dip, tzatziki, Mexican six-layer dip, roasted onion, ranch-style and salsa served with an assortment of chips, crisps and crackers.

Pigskin Potatoes – These twice-baked potatoes can be made in advance and only need to be tossed in the oven before the game begins. Make them with baby red potatoes for an easy pop-in-your-mouth appetizer.

Are you watching the big game this weekend? What are you planning to serve?
