Superbowl Party Food?


prinsessa

Recommended Posts

prinsessa Contributor

I'm not a football fan, but DH and his family like it. So since the Bears are going to the Superbowl (and we live in Chicago), we are having a Superbowl party for the first time. Is anyone else having a Superbowl party and what are you serving? I was thinking of making chicken wings and nachos, but I don't know what else. DD's birthday party is the day before, so we will also have left-over chicken tostadas.

Yup...This is our annual event. We usually have about 20 people over. The guys watch the game the girls watch the commercials.

This year:

Pork Tenderloin with Paul Prudhomme's dry rub. (on the grill)

B&B Baked Beans -doctored up

Large Salad

Gluten cornbread for the others. (someone else makes)

Easy

My daughters birthday also.

I don't think we're having one this year, but if we were I would serve:

Chicken Enchilladas (corn tortillas, not flour)

Tortilla Soup

Chips/Salsa

Mexican Salad (shredded romaine, tomatoes, corn and red onions in a balsamic vinegar dressing)

Dessert would be some sort of brownies or cookies or Apple cobbler Or all 3.

These are things I'd make BEFORE going gluten free, and although I'd need to adjust the ingredients to verify source is gluten free, they can all be made that way.

They're also easy to make ahead of time so that you don't have to avoid watching the game!

Personally, I'd be watching the game.

I have the best recipe EVER for 7-layer dip. Just beware though, people will want you to make this every time they see you! I have two friends that request it every year for their birthday!

Layers:

1. Can(s) of refried beans along base of pan

2. 3-4 ripe avocados mashed up with lemon juice, salt & pepper OR some pre-made guacomole

3. Mix 2 cups sour cream with 1 cup mayo and a taco packet in separate bowl, spread over avocado layer

4. Chopped Scallions

5. Chopped Black Olives

6. Chopped Tomatoes

7. 1 packet shredded cheese - i usually use the mexican mix or monteray jack

Serve as is (cold or room temp, do not put in oven) with corn tortilla chips!

YUM.

I usually guesstimate the amounts listed above depending on how big my pan is. If I do a smaller amount than what I listed above - I'll cut the sour cream/mayo/taco packet in half and only use half the seasonings - depends on how much spice you want in it!

This is a guaranteed hit! Let me know if you have any questions..

We are orginally from Chicago but now in Wisconsin. So glad about the bears going this year! So, ofcourse we will have aparty. Even if it is just the four of us. We like little smokies wrapped in pizza dough, potato skins, hot wings, homemade chips and anything else I can think of. If you want any tips on these just ask!

Liz - I see you mentioned BBQ sauce - have you been able to find a good gluten free brand? I got one at whole foods this past weekened and it was OK, but not great...

THANKS, Allie

I'm not Liz,

But Sweet Baby Ray's is the best that I have had and, of course gluten free.

So do you just put the little smokies in the sauce and warm them that way?

Has anyone ever soaked their meatballs in chili sauce & grape jelly mixture? A friend of mine gave me that recipe many years ago - it's really good. I'd love to make them, but I can't seem to find a chili sauce that would be safe...or is the Heinz one okay? ( they mailed me a list, and it wasn't on it, so I'm assuming it is NOT safe). They are sooooooo goood.....

Yep dump the smokies (drain the liquid off, sometimes there is some in the package) and the bbq sauce into the crock pot and warm. Sooo yummy!

I can't give you an answer for a gluten-free chili sauce. However, I can say that if it isn't on heinz gluten-free list then it isn't gluten-free. They are great about putting their list together.

hadn't planned on doing one, but what I would serve/have served in the past:

grilled baby back pork ribs

chips w/ salsa and guacamole

veggies w/ black bean dip and hummus

bean salad

I'm going to check that list again. I did just skim it and it was something I was looking for, but I did not study it like I should!

Mmmmmm...everything sounds so yummy. Now Dh is saying he isn't totally sure about having a party (we don't have a HUGE tv), but I want to have one just for the food. I'm going to try to make that 7-layer dip. It sounds really good. I am making refried beans for DD birthday party. I could use the leftovers for the dip. If I don't make it for Superbowl sunday, I will make it another day. Thanks everyone for the great ideas!

For the little meatballs in jelly sauce, I use ground beef, with garlic powder and onion powder and a bit of italian seasonings, in tomato sauce from a can, not doctored up, you need plain and cranberry sauce, either the whole berry or the jelly. The cranberry sauce melts right in and makes a tangy sauce for the meatballs. I just roll the meat up into tiny balls place them in the sauce and let them cook away!

so is the superbowl *this* sunday? I'll be recovering from a day of skiing by doing trail maintenance. ;)

I made the 7 layer dip for lunch yesterday for myself and ate half of it myself! (I'm pregnant, so that's my excuse!). Very good and so simple.

I'm so glad you liked it! I usually eat half of it & I'm not even pregnant!

I actually decided to make it this morning to bring to the superbowl party I'm going to. I brought it last year, but it was gone in about 20 minutes, so I'm sure people won't be disappointed!

Prinsessa -- Hope everyone likes it!!

      As @trents stated the pancreas does not produce lactase enzyme.  Most humans lose the ability to create enough lactase.  Some say milk is only for babies. But, by eating brined fermented foods like dill pickles and sourkraut, the Lactobacillus from these foods set up colonies in your gut and excrete lactase so we can eat dairy.  Most pickles sold in supermarkets are quick pickled, the vinegar gives them the texture and taste, but not the nutritional benefits.  Vinegar's acidity can inhibit or even kill Lactobacillus strains.  They need to be salt fermented.  And antibiotics kill them along with their prescribed target.  I used to make my own.  It takes about 10 days, depending on the sourness and crunchiness you prefer, then store in the fridge.  Bubbies Kosher Dill pickles and Ba-Tampte are the one's my Publix carries in the refrigerate area.  Never both at the same time though.  And there's Katz's Delicatessen in NY will ship.  I loved everything at Katz's. Naturally Fermented Pickles [The Complete Guide] Regarding the fats in milk.  Commercial dairies use additives to the feed to increase milk volume and milkfat.  Unfortunately the fat added are the C:16 fats but not the C:18 healthy fats, giving commercial dairies milk an omega 6:3 ratio of 5:1, inflammatory.  Organic milk's (30% pasture fed) ratio is 3:1 and Grassfed milk is 1:1.  Grass fed (pasture fed) milk in my opinion tastes much better, and is less inflammation.  It tastes so good, like the milk the milkman delivered to us in the fifties.  Another case of how overprocessed our food is today.  Even the 0%Fat Grassmilk tastes good. Only Ireland and New Zealand produce mostly pasture fed milk commercially.

      Her result for the TTG Ab (IgA) was 19. Lab range 0.0 - 0.7. U/ml.

      TTG would refer to a blood antibody test. Not valid if you are already eating gluten free or mostly so. DQH would refer to a genetic test to see if you possess either or both of the two genes that have been connected most strongly to developing active celiac disease. The genetic test is more of a rule out measure than a diagnostic test as about 40% of the general population have one or both of those genes but only about 1% of the general population develops active celiac disease. If you don't have the genes but gluten causes you issues then the conclusion is NCGS (Non Celiac Gluten Sensitivity) as opposed to celiac disease. So, the genetic testing helps with a differential diagnosis. I don't know about the 2P. 2 Pairs of genes?

      Tell him to get me a case...just kidding! I wonder why they are not labelled gluten-free here in the USA? They don't have gluten ingredients.

      Glad this helped. There are lots of alternative breads out there, so someone has likely made some sort of paleo bread with no grain. And if you bake, experiment with some of the alternative flours to see what you can come up with. If you commit to the gluten-free diet 100%, you may want to do a bit of research on some of the tricker aspects of getting gluten out of your diet, such as cross contamination in the home kitchen (pots and pans, cutting boards, toaster, airborne flour). Don't feel you have to do everything at once, or let this overwhelm you. I've always said that going gluten free is a process, not a moment. The reason I mention this is that, if you think you are gluten-free, but still having symptoms, you may realize that even minute amounts of gluten cause a reaction for a while. Let me know if you have any questions.  Pam
