 Are you ready for some football (food)??!!
Game Day Football Food has come a long way since we held our first Super Bowl Party entitled "Boys Day of Junk Food" some 11 years ago.  As my son entered kindergarten, our little celebration included a few boys and their families to watch the big game, and with the 5 year-old boys planning the menu, Pringles, M&M's, soda and chocolate chip cookies made up our football food spread.


Fast forward a few years and that same table took on a whole new look as our annual event grew to over 60 people on Super Bowl Sunday.  While our Game Day Food never lost the Pringles, this new and improved table featured dishes including Becky's Famous Football Stromboli, Strawberry Margarita Jello Shots, Lemon Blueberry Pound Cake, and Chicken Mango Won Ton Cups.

With the 2013 playoffs well under way and the Super Bowl right around the corner, here are a few ideas for your Game Table.
