super bowl {party} menu.

Now that we know who’s playing in the Super Bowl, we can move on to more important matters. Like what we’re eating.

I mean, duh. Everyone knows that football feeds are far more important than the game itself. I like football and everything, but what I live for is the food. Give me cheesy dips, give me chicken wings – extra-hot, hi – give me pizza, sliders, nachos…I could go on and on…but I won’t. I won’t, because that’s not what we’re really doing here today.

Today, we’re doing something a little healthier, a bit more modern, and just a tad – well, sexier.

Without further ado, meet your inspiration for this year’s Super Bowl shindig.

It’s about taking our favorites, and elevating them – you know, taking them up a notch. You guys know this is my thing by now, right?!

We’re doing beer, surely the official football game-day drink of choice, in sangria form. That’s right, this is the drink that Daniel has so brilliantly nicknamed “mangria” – and you’re going to love it. I don’t even care if you don’t like beer. You’ll love this.

We’re doing deviled eggs made better by my favorite smoking-hot BFF chipotle, a healthier (and equally, if not more, delicious) take on guac, and BLT wraps on steroids – um, or at least season-proof. And those double-mocha fudge brownies? Those are now affectionately known as face-melting. You’ll have to taste them to understand just what this adjective means, but I’ll give you a hint – it’s like the hotter, younger cousin to mind-blowing.

Recipes all coming your way before Super Bowl Sunday, so stay tuned!
