My Favorite Appetizers for Super Bowl Sunday

January 30, 2020 by Marilena Leavitt Leave a Comment

Some people are looking forward to the Super Bowl on Sunday because they just love professional football.  Others will tune in because their favorite team made it to the finals.  Still others see it as an excuse to get together with friends, share delicious finger foods and appetizers, and maybe occasionally check on the score!

No matter with which group you identify, or, whether you are rooting for San Francisco or Kansas City, one thing is certain:  these games are known to go on for some time, so it is a good idea to be prepared with a variety of spreads, finger foods and tasty nibbles to last the night!
