Even More Best of the Web! Superbowl Sunday Edition
Posted by Nora
Friday, February 3, 2012Nora is more my kind of fan: she’s routing for the Patriots, and rightfully so. Here are her picks for best Superbowl snacks found around the web…
Spiced Sweet Potato Chips
Instead of buying chips and crackers to dip in the Mahummara Dip from Taylor’s post, try these baked chips from Savour the Senses that aren’t too greasy but packed with tons of flavor.
Root Beer Jelly Shots
Switch up the overdone 12-pack, or 30-pack, and try something different. These Root Beer Jelly Shots from Jelly Shot Test Kitchen are easy to slurp down so you don’t have to miss a second of the game. Head-back-bottle-up!
Tex-Mex Sloppy Joe Sandwich
The Homesick Texan has our mouths watering again with this spicy twist on the classic Sloppy Joe. For easy serving, lay out all of the toppings buffet-style and let your guests pile their buns as high as they please.
Apple Cheese Beer Quick Bread

Best of the Web: Superbowl Sunday!
Posted by Taylor
Friday, February 3, 2012With only two days until the big game, it’s time to start finalizing those menu plans (because no one wants to miss a play, and especially not a commercial, to go pick up pizza). In honor of the brewing rivalry between the Pats and the Giants, we’re bringing you two installments of best-of-the-web features today, the first by our resident New York fan (booooo!)…
As tensions run high in the HCP office over who will win the Superbowl, the one thing that we can all agree on is– you guessed it– food! With the big game only a few days away, the topic of food (and football, I suppose) is on all of our minds. Check out these bloggers for fun and yummy game day recipes that put a new twist on some classic Superbowl Sunday snacks and treats.
Mahummara Dip
This dip from A Communal Table goes well with pretty much anything. Without...
A Healthy Superbowl Sunday?
Posted by Nora
Wednesday, February 1, 2012I don’t always watch the Superbowl, but when I do it’s only because the Patriots are playing! On Sunday I’ll make the hour-long trek out of the city to my south shore Massachusetts hometown to watch the game with my Patriots-enthusiast-filled family. I’m already doubling up on gym time in preparation for the epic feast that will be going down in my house.
When I asked my mom what I should bring, she replied with “something healthy, since no one else will, and I have my Weight Watchers meeting on Monday!”
Something healthy?! But… but… it’s the Superbowl! It’s the one time of year when I might actually feel guilty for eating healthy. If the Patriots happen to lose, it could be because we were eating healthy while rooting them on! Just not natural.
Thankfully, after looking through Debbie Moose‘s tailgating-friendly Fan Fare, I realized that there are in fact quite a few...
A Smoky Superbowl Snack

Wednesday, February 1, 2012
As a native of New Jersey, I’m a Giants fan by default. I grew up so close to Giants Stadium that I could practically smell the tailgate food as it trailed into my living room whenever there was a home game! Superbowl for my family has always meant piling onto the couch, cheering obnoxiously loud, and most importantly, enjoying an endless amount of delicious food.
Sports? Not really my thing. The Superbowl? Always my thing– at least for the food! Ever since my childhood days of huddling around the television with my family on Superbowl Sunday, the thing I looked forward to most was helping my mom carve out the “guts” of a pumpernickel loaf for her spinach artichoke dip.
Now that I live on my own and my childhood passion for hallowing out the center of pumpernickel bread is long gone, I wanted to make a dip for an upcoming Superbowl...
