So... Super bowl is coming up this Sunday. I am sure many don't care.. I really don't care too much but do enjoy the gathering of friends. Being in New England I am a Pats fan so that helps lol! Anyway, it's always the same at these parties... Wings, chips and dip, cheese and crackers, little (frozen) meatball and usually trays of stuffed shells and/or lasagna and there's usually a salad and a fruit bowl because my friends "Know how I like to eat" haha! I am a vegetarian and a clean eater and I follow a CRON nutrition plan, but I don't make it a big deal. I usually just bring a bunch of my own clean, healthy and macro-friendly foods, enough to share. Oddly enough it's the stuff that I bring along that gets eaten the quickest! This year I am bringing a large salad with every vegetable known to man and a bunch of steamed lemon-grass chicken and some avocados and I am making those cauliflower buffalo bites and thinking of making some sweet potato skins with home-made guacamole. Psssstttt.. I am good a substituting with many vegan products and no one knows the diff! 
I am also going to make a batch of black bean brownie bites so that I can have sweets that don't come from a Walmart Bakery!
Anyone else have anything they're making for Super Bowl Sunday?

Haha! Are you sure you're not going to the same party I am? 1

I'm preparing a queso dip and maybe some oreo truffle balls. Full fat, full delicious.
Football Sundays are my IDGAF days.2 -
I'm thinking about bringing this snack that I like: cucumber slices with red pepper hummus and black olives on top, sprinkled with feta.
Easy, fancy looking, and hopefully won't break the calorie bank!1 -

My wife and I gave up hosting or going to super bowl gatherings about 4 years ago due to the fact that she and I tended to be the only one's interested in the actual game and everyone else was just there to party and it ruined the watching for us.
We go to town on wings a few occasions out of the year, and Superbowl is one of them...I bake them in the oven...I'll probably make a couple dozen to split between the two of us and probably a side salad.3 -
We will enjoy the game at home as usual because we're old and my husband can't ever stay awake to the end. We're having crab dip with chips and my husband is making jambalaya. I can't wait. He makes the best jambalaya! And beer, of course.0

Oooh, jambalaya!!! YUM!1 -
My husband and I will be watching the game at home together, and enjoying crispy oven fried chicken wings, celery stuffed with a buffalo chicken mix, and some other goodies that I haven't figured out yet. I am sure there will be some kind of not so good small goodie for both of us. Go Pats!!!0

Yep--oven roasted wings, the ubiquitous carrot and celery tray...and beer. Lots of beer.
Go Falcons!!

Smoked something, not sure yet, baked potato salad with egg, tortilla chips and homemade guacamole and beer. Lots of beer. Who's in the Super Bowl this year? My team didn't win and I'm a sore loser!0

Do you have a recipe, wolfman? My DH always says that the baked ones aren't crispy enough. For me, they're plenty crispy, considering how many more I can eat than fried...

Buttermilk soaked buffalo wings
Pulled pork sliders
BBQ Bacon cheeseburger meatballs
Chips/homemade guac/homemade pico
popcorn
regular potato chips with homemade Greek Yogurt ranch dip
Baked macaroni and cheese
Pot of chili with cornbread poppers
Sausages and Hot dogs
Baby back ribs
Philly cheesesteak sliders
Baked ziti
We are doing a tequila punchbowl style drink in red (for the Falcons) and a vodka style punchbowl drink in blue for the Patriots.
Plenty of beer (of course)
Dessert will be cupcakes decorated in red and blue, cheesecake from scratch and the tears of Patriot fans after the Falcons win. :laugh:3 -

I'm on my way! (I'm rooting for the Falcons, too, as it's my son's fav team.)
BTW, that baby keeps getting cuter!!!2 -
My spouse is going to be on a business trip, and we're homebodies, so it'll just be me and the kids. Homemade pizza, wings, chips & dips, and ice cream sandwiches. And a coupla beers for me.
Go, sportsball!0 -
