I am having my first ever super bowl party this weekend and I am wondering what kind of foods I should make? Would anyone mind sharing any ideas or recipes with me? Thanks!!!

I would go for finger foods. Hot wings, cheese ball, crackers, sandwiches, cake of course, veggie tray. Have lots of napkins, and stain remover for your carpet! Have a great time!

i'm having my first superbowl party mylsef and I think with the expense of the big screen tv im renting and all the drinks plus providing entertianment for any kids that might come is enough of an expense withough going to crazy on the food but we are doing much of the same cake pizza rolls chips and dip chicken on a stick little smokies wings of course and cheese and crackers.

Y'all you can always ask people to bring something. Most will, I know it is Sunday, but I ahte going to a party and bringing something. The super bowl is not my thing, only because my teams are not in it, but I am having poeple bring things to my Nextel Daytona party.

Hot wings, nachos, a big sub, sausage balls, cheese plate, crackers - lots of junk food. We always get bellyaches on Superbowl Sunday! LOL

OMG, you MUST try sausage balls, they are FANTASTIC!! Please forgive my imprecise recipe, I haven't actually looked up the recipe in years.
Recipe:
1 roll ground sausage (Jimmy Dean)
1 envelope Bisquick (or any dry biscuit mix)
2 cups shredded cheddar cheese

Mix all ingredients together in a large bowl until well combined. Form small balls (about bite size). Bake on an ungreased pan with low sides (you will get grease collected on the pan). Bake at 350 degrees F for about 15 minutes or until lightly browned.

My annual Superbowl fare is:

Homemade Chile
Baked Chicken Nuggets
various homemade dips and lots of crackers, chips
Brownies

and this year.....a BEARS cake. woo hoo!

Hubby, who doesn't even really understand football (I had to explain the game to him when we got married 18 years ago!) announced he wants Super Bowl food. (He's "into it" this year, for obvious reasons!) I asked him, "What kind of food do you want?" He says, "You're the caterer! You know ..... football food!"

I luv him anyway!

I think i am going to make a mexican feast! with tacos, breakfast burritoes, nachos, tortilla chips and salsa, and non-mexican dessert lemon tart! it'll be soo good, but yet so messy!
