Football Cheese Ball

A game-day showstopper, this savory, football-shaped cheese ball is super easy to make and even easier to eat.

Football Dessert Board

Need something sweet? This cream cheese-based chocolate cheese ball is shaped like a football and super easy to customize the color to showcase the two league champions.

Build Your Own Hot Dog Board

If you’re doing an all-day cookout, hot dogs are essential. Gather all the toppings on a beautiful board for a super easy way to snack while you watch.

Game Day Meatball Board

If you need a hearty, protein-forward app idea, this meatball board is a favorite. Pair them with veggies and other goodies. The best part? Use your favorite frozen brand for even easier prep!

Soft Pretzel Charcuterie Board

The only thing that could possibly make a cheese board better? Warm, salty soft pretzels! Pair with all the dips, sausages, and treats.

Game Day Wings Board

No game spread is complete without wings! No matter what your favorite rub and/or sauce is, throw this board together for a classic snack.

Build Your Own Bloody Mary Board

Instead of taking orders and making everyone’s drink… let your friends make their own with this board. It’s a win-win!

California Football Snack Board

This board was inspired by the 2021 Super Bowl in Los Angeles. Whether or not you live in Cali (like me!), this board has a great selection of fresh, yummy snacks.

Build Your Own Burger Board

Sliders, smash burgers, gourmet patties—nothing is more classic than a burger! Set up this board with all the fixin’s for a touchdown.

Great Super Bowl Finger Foods: Easy Sliders for a Crowd

When it comes to great party foods, you can’t go wrong with sliders. Ham and Swiss is my go-to combo, it’s just so classic.

Ham & Cheese Sliders Recipe

In this recipe, I’ve whipped up a buttery slider sauce to brush on top of the buns–it melds deliciously with the salty ham and creamy Swiss cheese. And when you add King’s Hawaiian slider buns? You really can’t get much better!

Winning Super Bowl Dips Everyone Loves

In my humble opinion, dips are the most important part of a Super Bowl party. They’re perfect on their own, but you can also add them to any of the boards above! Want more dip inspo? Check out more of my dip recipes here!

Buffalo Chicken Dip

Need I say more? If you’re still not convinced, this is a slow cooker recipe so your dip will stay warm and gooey the whole game (if it makes it past the first quarter!).

Blue Cheese Dip

This dip pairs perfectly with my Wings Board, but it’s just as delicious elevated with crostini, crackers, or baguette slices.

Rotel Dip

When it comes to hosting, it truly does not get easier (or tastier!) than Velveeta and Rotel cheese dip. All you have to do is brown the beef, then throw everything into a slow cooker an hour and a half before the big game.

Beer Cheese Dip

Craving your favorite sports bar grub? Whip up this dip and watch it get devoured just as fast!

Super Bowl Food for Small Groups

Having a small gathering? These mini charcuterie board options are perfect for you and a friend or two.

Jarcuterie

It’s exactly what it sounds like! A single-serve cheese board in each little jar. Maximal deliciousness, minimal mess. You can even make them football-themed with football toothpicks or team flag toothpicks.

Charcuterie Cones

A simple, elegant single-serve appetizer option that’s especially easy for cleaning up.

Cheese Board For One (or Two)

Watching the Big Game solo or with your fur friend? Whip up this mini board and settle in.
