It is that time of the year again. The time of year where we sit around a TV, some to watch THE football game of the year, others to watch the commercials that occasionally are better then the game. As important as the game (and commercials) is the food. We don't want a fancy sitdown meal. No, we want food that we can use our hands to eat. Usually pizza, buffalo wings, veggie platter, chips, salsa, nachos, hot dogs, philly cheese sandwiches... If it can be eaten with our hands without having to look at our plate, that is the food for Superbowl.
However, what do you do when you need to cut down on carbs and or fats, whether for medical reasons or for a diet? What happens if you have a vegetarian who doesn't want just the veggie tray with ranch? What if you are craving all those Superbowl favorites that everyone else at your party is eating (because you know a veggie platter will not help you at all)? Well, I got you covered. I went through my favorites and created handheld food that may not be exactly what you are craving, but at least a close second. (Actually, I like all of the above better then the originals, but then again I did make them).
I added lots of vegetarian options (that my meat eaters LOVE) that is more exciting then raw veggies and ranch. And although these may seem difficult, they aren't. The cheese crisps and cheddar cups are a little time consuming but they can be made up to a week ahead of time. (Yes, I know super bowl is tomorrow, but for next time it is good to know you make them up way before you need them).
Here are the links to all the items in the above picture:
I hope you all enjoy these recipes and be safe this weekend.
