Although we won’t have the Eagles to cheer for, I encourage everyone to gather around, watch some football, and enjoy food that’s easy to make and share this weekend. An enjoyable game will need tasty dishes to indulge in so I’ve prepared this article to help you brainstorm something that will keep all your guests energized.
- Chipotle Chicken Nachos with Jalapeño Yogurt

Nachos are a classic and as a cook who has all of Tieghan Gerard’s books from Half-Baked Harvest, I can say she never disappoints! This recipe includes chicken, sweet potatoes, and beans with various spices to add some heat alongside a refreshing jalapeño yogurt. If you prefer to add your own twists you’re in luck because nachos are customizable and quick to make. Tortilla chips, shredded cheese, a cooked meat of your choice, beans, and diced tomatoes make up the basics, and all you have to do is layer it on a baking sheet and bake until the cheese is melted and bubbly. The prep is simple and the cleanup minimal!
- Pizza Pinwheels

A pizza slice is hard to deny, but a pizza pinwheel, or as my family would say “pizza snail,” is irresistible. It’s something you can call homemade with low effort and an exquisite look. Just like nachos, these pinwheels are customizable with store-bought or homemade pizza dough as the foundation. I recommend visiting a grocery store with flat, rectangular dough you can roll out. From there, add some sauce and any pizza toppings of your choice like cheese, pepperoni, peppers, onions, and spices. Don’t overstuff and leave some empty space on one end to help with rolling up and sealing. Bake and enjoy!
- Buffalo Chicken Dip Sliders

You may want to stock up on the jalapeños because this is another recipe bringing on the heat! Sliders are a small and filling dish to add to the mix for anyone to grab without feeling like they’re committing to a full meal. Some options for different tastes including cheeseburger, pulled pork, or a chicken with a spicy sauce like this recipe! Again, we are keeping things simple so buy a pack of King’s Hawaiian rolls and load it without the stress of making any dough.
Super Bowl food is just as important as the game itself so, regardless of whether or not you’ll be having a party, find a recipe online that suits your desires and cook something up to share with your family or friends! If you want to get others involved in your cooking endeavors, consider making a collaborative dish like a charcuterie board where everyone can make a small contribution. Remember to enjoy the process, keep the energy high, and enjoy the big game!
