17 Recipes for Super Bowl LIII
17 of my favorite appetizers, snacks, cocktails, and sweets to make for the Super Bowl! Even if you aren’t hosting, be sure to bring one (or a few!) of the scrumptious recipes in this roundup to your Super Bowl Party.
- Pomelo Paloma
Light, bright, and effervescent:these Pomelo Palomas are the perfect thirst quencher for your crew. - Charred Poblano and Corn Guacamole The ULTIMATE guac recipe! A little sweet from the grilled corn, and a little smoky from the charred poblano. Serve with jicama and cucumber slices sprinkled with Tajin seasoning, and tortilla chips! Pro tip: make a double batch.
- Jameson and Rye Chocolate Chip Cookies
The cookie that needs no further introduction. WHISKEY. CHOCOLATE CHIP COOKIES. You’re welcome. - Juicy Lucy Meatballs Juicy Lucys are a big deal here in Minnesota…and these meatballs will elicit the same “eyes-pop-outa-your-head” excitement as the burgers themselves. Served with a killer homemade BBQ sauce, these are bound to be a new fan favorite.
- My Favorite Chili Everyone has their won recipe for chili, I get it. But trust me here! My version has the perfect meat to bean to tomato ratio. Top with sour cream, shredded cheddar, fresh (or pickled!) jalapeños, avocado, and cilantro. A big bowl of comfort, right here!
- Killer Bloody Marys This recipe is for a vodka starter, including all the ingredients you’d be using in your Bloody in the first place. What does this mean? The perfect Bloody. Every. Single. Time. Don’t forget the beer chaser!
- My Favorite Buffalo Cauliflower with Cilantro Jalapeño Ranch
By far my most made and adored recipe on my blog! These Buffalo Cauliflower “wings” are even more delicious when served with a spicy, cool, herby Cilantro Jalapeño Ranch dipping sauce. The Super Bowl won’t be complete with out ’em! - Artichoke and Pecorino Romano Tapenade Add a little fancy to your Super Bowl soiree! This spreadable tapenade is equally delicious schmeared on a baguette slice or scooped up with an endive leave (…or celery stick…or pepper slice…or cardboard, if I’m being honest).
- Korean BBQ Tacos with Kimchi Ginger Slaw Two words: SLOW COOKER. Kickoff isn’t until dinner time, which means you can get a head start on your gametime eats. The recipe for the kimchi slaw is EVERYTHING. These tacos are as delicious as they are fun to eat!
- Sumac Collins A cocktail almost too pretty to drink. Keyword being almost. Sumac is a bright and lemony spice which is the ground berries from (you guessed it) the sumac bush. This recipe makes a great batched cocktail – perfect for a big group!
- The BEST Shrimp Cocktail (like, ever)
One think I can guarantee you: once you make this recipe, you will never make shrimp cocktail the same. I have countless testimonials, upon request! Serve with a citrusy and herby chimmichurri sauce, or classic cocktail sauce. Either way – delicious results! - Melon Caprese Skewers
Simple, healthy, and crowd pleasing. These skewers are always a hit! - Surly Hell BBQ Chicken Meatballs These chicken meatballs are so simple it isn’t right. And the Surly Hell BBQ Sauce? (insert ‘mind-blown’ emoji here). Do your due diligence to seek out this delicious Minneapolis lager!
- (Insert Winning Team Here) Caviar A favorite of all! Chop up al the ingredients, toss in a huge bowl, season accordingly. Make a little in advance so the flavors can meld and make it even more addictive, Not getting my subtle cues? MAKE A QUAD BATCH. This one is always the first to go!
- Lemon & Dill Hummus Homemade hummus is THE way to go – always! Far more simple than anticipated, this recipe includes just a handful of ingredients, and can easily be adjusted dependent on what you have in your pantry.
- Vegan Three Bean and Hominy Chili and Cornbread Muffins Vegans and carnivores alike will LOVE this easy chili. A secret ingredient stands in for sour cream as a topper, leaving you just as satisfied. Vegan cornbread muffins on the side – yes please!
- Ginger Hibiscus Margarita Two things that go hand in hand? TEQUILA + FOOTBALL.Trust me here. Coming from someone who decides which team she’s rooting for when kickoff occurs (because football is really all about the food & Bev over here, tbh), tequila puts me in the kinda mood where football isn’t just tolerated… it’s enthusiastically viewed (read: shouting, screaming, finger pointing, pillow throwing. No judgement, please).
