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

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!

prinsessa Contributor

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!!

      Thus has got to STOP , medical bit believing us! I literally went through 31 years thinking it was just a food allergy as its downplayed by medical if THEY weren't the ones who diagnosed us! Im positive for HLA-DQ2 which is first celiac patient per Iran and Turkey. Here in the States especially in Cali its why do you feel that way? Why do you think your celiac? Your not eating gluten so its something else.Medical caused me depression. I thought I was safe with my former pcp for 25 years considering i thought everything I went through and going through will be available when I get fired again for health. Health not write-ups my health always come back when you're better.Im not and being tossed away at no fault to my own other than shitty genes.I was denied disability because person said he didn't know how to classify me! I said Im celiac, i have ibs, hernia, sciatica, high blood pressure, in constant pain have skin and eye issues and menopause intensified everything. With that my celiac nightmare began to reprove my disregarded disease to a bunch of clowns who think they are my careteam when they said I didn't have...I feel Im still breathing so I can fight this so no body else has to deal with this nightmare. Starting over with " new care team" and waisting more time on why I think I am when diagnosed in 1994 before food eliminated from my diet. P.s everything i went through I did write to medical board, so pretty sure I will continue to have a hard time.

      @Scatterbrain, Thiamine Vitamin B1 and amino acid Taurine work together.  Our bodies can make Taurine from meats consumed.  Our bodies cannot make Thiamine and must consume thiamine from food.  Meat is the best source of B vitamins like Thiamine.   Vegetarians may not make sufficient taurine since they don't eat meat sources of taurine.  Seaweed is the best vegetarian source of taurine. Vegetarians may not consume sufficient Thiamine since few veggies are good sources.  Whole grains, legumes, and nuts and seeds contain thiamine.  Many of these sources can be hard to digest and absorb for people with Celiac disease.   You may find taking the forms of thiamine called Benfotiamine or TTFD (tetrahydrofurfuryl disulfide) and a B Complex will give the benefits you're looking for better than taurine alone.

      @Jmartes71, I went to Doterra's site and had a look around.  The Doterra TerraZyme supplement really jumped out at me.  Since we, as Celiacs, often have digestive problems, I looked at the ingredients.  The majority of the enzymes in this supplement are made using black mold, Aspergillus!  Other enzymes are made by yeast Saccharomyces!  Considering the fact that Celiac often have permeable intestines (leaky gut syndrome), I would be very hesitant to take a product like this.  Although there may not be live black mold or yeast in the product, the enzymes may still cause an immune system response which would definitely cause inflammation throughout the body.   Skin, eyes, and intestines are all made from the same basic type of cells.  Your skin on the outside and eyes can reflect how irritated the intestines are on the inside.  Our skin, eyes, and intestines all need the same vitamins and nutrients to be healthy:  Vitamin A, Niacin B3 and Tryptophan, Riboflavin B2, Biotin B7, Vitamin C, and Omega Threes.  Remember that the eight B vitamins work together.  Just taking high doses of just one, vitamin like B12, can cause a deficiency in the others.  Taking high doses of B12 can mask a Folate B9 deficiency.  If you take B12, please take a B Complex, too.  Thiamine B1 can be taken in high doses safely without toxicity.  Thiamine is needed by itself to produce energy so every cell in the body can function, but Thiamine also works with the other B vitamins to make life sustaining enzymes and digestive enzymes.  Deficiencies in either Niacin, Vitamin C, or Thiamine can cause digestive problems resulting in Pellagra, Scurvy, and Gastrointestinal Beriberi.   If you change your diet, you will change your intestinal microbiome.  Following the Autoimmune Protocol Diet, a Paleo diet, will starve out SIBO bacteria.  Thiamine keeps bacteria in check so they don't get out of control as in SIBO.  Thiamine also keeps MOLDS and Yeasts from overgrowth.   Menopause symptoms and menstrual irregularities are symptomatic of low Vitamin D.   Doctors are not as knowledgeable about malnutrition as we need them to be.  A nutritionist or dietician would be more helpful.   Take control of your diet and nutrition.  Quit looking for a pill that's going to make you feel better overnight.  The Celiac journey is a marathon, not a sprint.   "Let food be your medicine, and let medicine be your food."

      The Lindt (Lindor) dairy-free oat milk truffles are definitely gluten-free, and (last time I checked) so are the white chocolate truffles and the mint chocolate truffles.

      I've used magnesium taurinate and magnesium taurate vitamins.  Didn't notice much of a difference when I used them.
