That is how I’m referring to this year’s Super Bowl. I hate the Giants (as you know, I am a die-hard Eagles fan) and the Patriots are like that girl in high school that keeps getting cast as the lead in all the plays. We’re all sick of her undeniable talents and ready to give someone else a chance. (Plus they beat us in 2005, and I hold a grudge like a mother ‘effer.)
So instead of wasting my time debating whether the Giants defense is going to crush Tom Brady’s hopes for the Patriots’ 4th ring, I have channeled all my efforts into creating the ultimate Stuff Your Face menu, and I plan on doing just that.
Behold. A thing of glory:

Macheesmo’s Jalapeno Popper Dip. I kind of want to face plant right into this bowl. Jalapeno poppers are one of those “splurge” items that get thrown onto a pizza delivery order at our house when we feel like being extra sinful. I am nothing short of stoked to eat an embarrassing amount of this.

The Girl Who Ate Everything’s Hot Pizza Dip. Do I even need to explain? I might perform one of the day’s most impressive sacks if someone even dares to try and pry this away from me. Osi Umenyiora‘s got nothin’ on me.
Broccoli Slaw Veggie Pizza. A standard for me when it comes to party food. So easy and always a crowd-pleaser. But let’s be real here…This is really just so I don’t feel like a total slob after the great food massacre. Look, there’s veggies on there!
In addition to these lovely items, I believe there will be meatballs, chili and lots-o-beer. I just hope that Monday morning I’m able to put my pants on, but if not, I’ve got some sweet leggings and tunics that will get me through the week.
Are you making anything for the Super Bowl? Who are you rooting for?

Holy dips, Batman. That jalapeno popper creation is a thing of beauty, although I think it should be called a “spoon” and not a “dip,” as I don’t think you even need a vehicle to shove it into your face.
As for the game, I’m indifferent. Brady is a Michigan boy, but I’m tired of the Patriots. The verdict? Watching for the commercials.

ooohhh… i saw that pizza dip floating around pinterest the last week or so. It’s something I’m keeping in the back of my mind for future reference. Looks like it’d be a real winner with everyone.

OMG that popper dip – faceplant, here I come!
Effing HATE the Patriots (Hatriots). Eli is a dopey goober but I much prefer him to Tom Brady, girliest quarterback in the NFL.

I actually went out yesterday and bought all my Jalapeno Popper Dip ingredients. Can’t WAIT to try it out!

I’m also cheering for the Giants. The Pats don’t deserve to win again. They remind me of the Yankees in baseball…too many wins already!

That jalapeno popper dip looks amazing.
I kind of wish the superbowl was a bigger deal here just so I could have all the food. I mean, some people have parties, but its not the same as it is in the States.

I don’t think I’ll make anything. But that jalapeno dip calls to me.

I am SO EXCITED for food on Sunday. My little cousins’ birthday party is superbowl, and in the past my cousin’s menu has included pigs in a blanket, pizza rolls, chicken fingers, and all the good things in life. I’m providing buffalo dip and cookie dough truffles. Recipes soon – and omg are they fantastic.
Eff the giants. Eff the pats. Eff the police. OK not that last one – sorry just felt a little gangsta. 16 days till spring training!

Oh man this all looks delicious. I’ll be all by my lonesome this year, but I’m bookmarking that jalapeno dip and broccoli slaw pizza. Amazing.

i’ve never seen that broccoli slaw pizza idea before, i love!!! hope you have a fantastic friday lady!

I am having people over for the game and I have been tweaking my menu all week. Seriously, it needs to stop. I have way too much planned- pretty sure this could turn into a $200 effort. I’m pretty excited about the mac and cheese balls I’m planning on making, though.

We always do chili and cornbread! GIANTS!!!

I have Macheesmo’s popper dip bookmarked for when I feel like downing a bowl of it by myself. Or I could make it for a party but I’m selfish like that. I’m making pepperoni rolls for the Superbowl, it’s been waaaaaay to long since I’ve made them. I’m really not rooting for either team though, I’m just watching for the commercials and half time show.

The truth is that I forgot today is the Super Bowl – until I just read this post! I’m so out of it when it comes to sports. But the food does look super tempting.

Mmmm, anything pizza related works for me.

After I saw your post I decided to make the jalapeno dip and boy was it yummmmmmmmmmmy!! The only pit-fall was that Giant (grrrrrr) did not have ANY fresh jalapenos!! (And of course I waited till the last minute to make it so I had no time to run some where else to possibly obtain the fresh ones) Soo I wound up using the ones in the jar but still turned out super yummy!
February 6, 2012 at 10:39 am
I also used the jarred and I thought it was still amazing!

Rooted for the Giants; was hoping for a party to go to…but the Hubby insisted I go to Bikini’s Bar with him instead- spent 3 hours having the worst servers ever (kept forgetting our drinks, what we ordered, etc)…thank God they’re good looking b/c I doubt they could even get into a community college…
