4 Great Game Day Snacks

There is nothing better than hosting family and friends for the big game. It doesn't even matter if your team isn't in the big show. Game day parties are all about hanging out, having fun, and being with those you care about. 

Set up a game of cornhole, play a few rounds of flip cup, or organize a fun game to play while following the action. Challenge your friends to a trivia game about the teams playing, or create your own Super Bowl bingo cards. If you're feeling extra competitive, you can even assign points for each game and have a winner at the end of the night.

But most of all, you have to make sure you've got the right snacks for the big game. Here are just a few that are staples for hosting:

Chips and Dip

The best thing about chips and dip is the variety. Each person coming to the party has their own version of their "best" dip. Invite them all! Set up a colorful chip and dip station with a variety of chips and dips like guacamole, queso, and salsa. Serve with a few homemade dips like a tasty onion dip, buffalo chicken dip, or creamy spinach dip.

One of the most iconic versions of chips and dip is nachos. You can layer chips with your favorite toppings like black beans, tomatoes, olives, jalapenos, and melted cheese.

Chicken Wings

There is no bigger staple to a game day buffet than chicken wings. Just like chips and dip, these delightful finger foods can be custom cooked by any culinary connoisseur. If you're looking for hot and spicy, a nice hot sauce will do the trick. Looking for an Asian twist? Wings are great with a teriyaki or soy-based sauce.

You can even grill, bake or fry up some chicken wings with your favorite dipping sauces. Ranch, honey mustard, and BBQ sauce are all popular options but don't forget to mix things up with garlic parmesan or Caribbean seasoning.

Chili

Chili is another great snack option for your Super Bowl party. Whether you're making a classic chili or trying a new recipe, it's sure to be a hit. You can even set up a chili bar and let your guests customize their chili with a variety of toppings like sour cream, shredded cheese, sliced jalapenos, and diced onions.

Serve with some tortilla chips or a side of cornbread and you've got yourself a delicious meal. Chili is also a great way to feed a crowd and can easily be made ahead of time.

Veggie Tray

It's always a good idea to bring out healthy options for those with dietary restrictions or looking for guilt-free party food. It can be as simple as grabbing one from your local grocery store or taking it on yourself by cutting up some of your favorite fresh vegetables like bell peppers, carrots, celery, and cucumbers. Make sure to serve it with a flavorful hummus or ranch dip.
