Looking to score a touchdown at your Super Bowl party? It's all about the snacks. Game-day classics like nachos, sliders, and, of course, pizza all deserve a little special treatment. Armed with inspiration to bring more flavor, crunch, and all-around deliciousness to your Super Bowl menu, it won't matter which team wins because your guests (and you too) will be the real winners. Check out these 17 ideas to help you get started on your most mouthwatering game-day menu ever.
Elevate Your Artichoke Dip
A creamy spinach artichoke dip is a sure party pleaser; step it up with the addition of a foodie favorite — kale.
Make Your Pizza Bite-Size
Take your favorite ingredients like zesty pepperoni and gooey cheese and roll them up in garlicky bites you can grab with ease.
Turn On Your Crockpot
Skip the traditional chili and try a white bean one instead. Brimming with bold flavors like bacon and sriracha, what's not to love?
Flavor-ify Your Sandwich
Blackberry, jalapeño chicken sandwiches may sound intimidating, but infusing your grab-and-go sandwiches with unexpected flavors is what will keep your guests coming back again and again.
Make Your Meatballs Tropical
There's nothing more classic than meatballs and tomato sauce, but the sweet and tangy taste of this pineapple version is too good to resist.
Embolden Your Wings
No appetizer screams game day quite like a piping-hot bowl of zesty wings. If you're a die-hard buffalo fan, we get it, but experimenting with flavors like peach and chili is sure to pay off.
Transform Your Taquitos
Ditch the frozen taquitos that come in a box; these homemade jalapeño, cream cheese, and chicken taquitos will change your life forever.
Remaster the Buffalo
Three words: buffalo ranch cups. These crispy, bite-size snackers are a great way to get your buffalo chicken from the plate into the hands (and mouths) of your friends.
Pump Up the Pizza
Pizza doesn't have to be just about cheese, meat, and tomato sauce. This ranch-laden buffalo chicken pizza is bold and zesty with every single bite.
Go Sweet and Salty
If you're whipping up a batch of pretzel bites, why not offer up the best of both worlds. Try garlic parmesan and cinnamon sugar so your guests can go back and forth.
Make Savory Pastries
Crunchy, flaky, and melt-in-your-mouth good, a batch of artichoke bacon pinwheels is just what every party needs to keep guests energized and satisfied.
Go Counterculture
French fry nachos? Yes. These loaded fries are doused in salsa, sour cream, and jalapeños, everything you might expect on a normal plate of nachos.
Meat on Meat
Even if you're not Ron Swanson, it's OK to just really love meat. A beer-soaked bratwurst is the perfect vessel to be wrapped in crispy, crunchy bacon.
Go For the Goal
If you're really feeling ambitious, putting together a party platter that mimics your favorite stadium may just be the ultimate accomplishment.
Remix Your Nachos
Ditch the tortilla chips and add a drool-inducing tang by making your nachos with sea-salt-and-vinegar potato chips.
Ditch Chips
Having a veggie option is always a good idea. Bite-size veggies like brussels sprouts are perfect for dipping.
Trick Out Your Mac
Macaroni and cheese is delicious no matter what, but an upgrade will take this ooey-gooey dish to the next level. Add bold mix-ins and top with breadcrumbs for a mac and cheese that just might change your life.
