Game Day Menu Ideas


I am not a big sports fan, but with four sons, and a sports loving husband I embrace the game the best I can.  Fun food and party planning help me get in the mood for the big game.

Last year I kept it really simple, I found football decorations at the Dollar Tree, I made a boxed chocolate cake and turned it into a football and had the normal football food; Nachos, Dips, Pizza and drinks.  The boys had some of their cousins over, I had my family over, my dad is a big Raiders fan and everyone had a great time.

Here are some pics from our last game day party:




That is another thing I enjoy about sports, is people getting together to go to a game or enjoy the game together on the big screen.

This is some of what I have planned for the big game this Sunday, I thought I'd share what recipes I am trying out.  I will let you know how it all turns out later.

Game Day Menu:
In honor of this years Superbowl teams (New England Patriots & Atlanta Falcons) I am making New England Clam Chowder and Peach Dump Cake.

Appetizers: 
Nachos, Spinach Artichoke Dip, Guacamole, Chips & Salsa

Finger Foods: 
Mozzarella Sticks and Jalapeno Poppers (Compliments of Farm Rich)

Dessert:
The Peach Dump Cake, Football themed Rice Krispie Treats, and possibly some football cupcakes.

I am super excited about making a Snack Stadium this year and I am thankful to Upstate Ramblings who made it super easy with directions on How to Build the Ultimate Football Snack Stadium.
Here are the recipes I found on-line that I plan to use. 

Worlds Best Spinach Artichoke Dip from Rae Gun Ramblings
