With the Super Bowl this weekend, you'll want to make a few favorite drinks and snacks to watch it. Here's a roundup of some of my all-time party favorites! Scroll down past the slideshow to find links to each recipe. All of these are super easy so you'll be able to hang out and enjoy the game!
PERFECT BLOODY MARY: What is a Super Bowl without a Bloody Mary? Get my classic recipe plus learn how to build a Bloody Mary Bar for your next brunch or party!
FIRE ROASTED CHIPOTLE CHILI We now call this one Melanie's Award Winning Chili because she won a chili cookoff with this recipe... smoky, spicy, but not too much heat, everyone loves it!
FAST FOOD PROCESSOR SALSA When you don't want to chop but want a fresh salsa... here's what to do.
HAM DELIGHTS I've been making this one since the 80's and nobody ever gets tired of it. It's always on our table for a party or people would go home!
CHUNKY BLUE CHEESE DIP Hard to have a party without a good dip... this one is good for veggies or also with my spicy chicken wings recipe below.
DIABLO CHICKEN WINGS Another recipe I made on Food Network Star... hard to go wrong with these for a football party!
CREAMY PARTY GUACAMOLE Everyone loves guac for a party. This one adds some cream cheese for a different take on the classic but if you are calorie conscious, just leave it out.
BAKED PITA CHIPS AND HOMEMADE ONION DIP Nothing says party like onion dip! As a kid, I never had a party without a gallon of Barber's Onion Dip. You'll love this one- better than I remember the original.
CHEESY ARTICHOKE BITES What is it about cheese and artichokes that just taste so good?
HAM AND CHEESE IN PUFF PASTRY I came up with this when I could not find the little rolls for my Ham Delights recipe. This one might be even better than the original!
BACON AND CHIVE POTATO SALAD While I do love the typical mustard based potato salad my mom always made, this bacon and chive potato salad tastes like a giant loaded baked potato!
