Football
* Fill tiny dinner rolls with chili and top with cheese for mini chili bites that
guests can just grab and pop in their mouths during commercials.
* Add “laces” to chocolate eggs with white cake icing to create tiny football
treats. (Alternative: dip strawberries in chocolate melt and then draw laces onto them
with a cake decorating tool for a somewhat healthier version.)
* Try to coordinate snack colors with your home team’s colors sometime to
add some team spirit to your football party.
* Have a table lled with pom-poms, big foam ngers and foam footballs to toss
around the house (without damaging anything!) to liven up your festivities.
* Tiny plastic footballs (or candy ones) placed on a bed of fresh wheat grass
make a great football-eld-inspired centerpiece. You can even paint lines on the
“eld” with a stencil and some powdered sugar!
