It’s that time of year again where we all put on our favorite team jersey, and nibble on kibble as we watch the Super Bowl Super Bowl. Super                     SSs       

Super Bowl!

The Super Bowl is the annual championship game of the National Football League (NFL), the highest level of professional football in the United States, culminating a season that begins in the late summer of the previous calendar year.
The day on which the Super Bowl is played, now considered by some an unofficial American national holiday, is called “Super Bowl Sunday”. It is the second-largest day for U.S. food consumption, after Thanksgiving Day.
Super Bowl food needs to be delicious, crowd-pleasing and easy to eat. Here are a few fantastic Super Bowl menu ideas to add to your collection.

For those that love a good dip, here are a couple of tasty ideas…

Onion Rings

Who doesn’t love a good crispy batch of Onion Rings!

Delicately battered onion rings can be made at home without fuss; seltzer is the secret ingredient. A spider — a wide and shallow wire skimmer — is the best tool for removing onion rings and fried parsley from the hot oil; if you don’t have one, use a big slotted spoon.

Roasted Chicken and Leek Pizza

A120622 Hard To Pair Foods. October 2012 Food & Wine Spicy: Carnitas w/Garlic & Orange. Wine pairing: Kabinett Riesling.

and last but not least…what party would be complete without WINGS!

Chicken Wings with Angry Sauce

CQ- Angry Wings

These wings are Angry!! But don’t worry…the men in your group will love them!

Don’t fumble on game night – If you have the space, get a few small containers and fill with ice to keep beer and other drinks cool. Place them in strategic spots so guests won’t be constantly getting up and going to the kitchen for a refill. Lay out your spread and enjoy the game.

It’s Super Bowl!!
