Planning the Big Game Day…
We know Super Bowl is all about football and food. So, if you’re planning to have family and friends over for the big game, you’ll want to have some great finger-food appetizers and tasty bites to serve.
So here are some great ideas and tips to help you plan for your big day:
1. Make a List of the Food: It’s best to make a list of the appetizers you want to serve. You can make ahead some yourself, and even prep them the day before. Also, you can ask family and friends to bring something as well, so you won’t be overwhelmed.
2. Plan Ahead for a Large Party: Plan on serving a few dishes that will feed a hungry crowd, like crowd-pleasing freezable dinner casseroles, or easy beef chili, and chicken kabobs on the grill. Perfect dishes that can be easily reheated just before your guests arrive.
3. Drinks or Cocktails: Aside from everyone’s favorite cold beers, make a list of what you think your guests will enjoy drinking, from 11 Wines to Pair with Food, to sparkling flavored waters.
4. Serving Essentials: Plan on having good quality paper dishes, and plastic utensils. Costco is great for those, along with small cocktail napkins.
