Just a few days left before the kick-off for Super Bowl XLV when the Green Bay Packers meet the Pittsburgh Steelers at Cowboy Stadium in Texas. Where are you going to be?
It has been estimated that only 3 out of 5 people who watch the Super Bowl are actually watching it and enjoying the game. So whether you’re at the front and center on your own 50-yard line in the comfy chair watching every play or wandering around waiting for the commercials or the half-time show or making an appearance just because the significant other is, the Super Bowl is a great mid-winter reason for an hors d’oeuvres party–finger food!–with the family and all your great friends!
So we need easy. Make ahead. Buffet-style. There is no serving here, no matter if he asks nicely for another beer, it’s all self-serve!
We’ve got a great selection of fast, easy, homemade snacks and appetizers here on Farm Bell that will score big points with all your family and friends.
Did you know, besides Thanksgiving, the most food is consumed on Super Bowl Sunday in the US?
So what are you–an armchair quarterback, commercial and half-time watcher, or a body taking up space munching on the food? Me? I miss the Bud Bowl, but I love the Clydesdales and my munchies.

Even though it will be a great personal sacrifice, I will commit to eating massive quantities of munchies as a show of solidarity with all who actually enjoy watching football.
May I start now? 😉

That is Charley’s Hot Artichoke with Spinach Dip http://farmbellrecipes.com/hot-artichoke-dip-with-spinach/. I doubled the recipe and mixed everything together in a 3-qt crockpot. I had a box of the baked philo cups (they were on sale)–after the dip was partially melted in the crockpot, I put a spoonful in each cup and put in the oven until it was JUST starting to brown on top.

Well, for cryin’ out loud! I had that recipe already saved to my recipe box. I’ll have to print it and add your comments. I really like the idea of the little individual cups. Thanks, CindyP

If you don’t have phyllo cups you can use wonton skins. Drape them in mini muffin pans & spray with PAM. Bake about 10 min. at 350 until golden. Then fill with artichoke dip or what I do – crab rangoon filling (cream cheese, crab, green onions, garlic) and bake another 7-8 minutes.
