19 Ultimate Super Bowl Party Food Ideas
1. Mozzarella Stick Fries
Mozzarella stick fries are the ultimate party snack for any cheese lover! They are irresistibly crispy on the outside, while hiding gooey, melty centers that stretch out in the most satisfying way. All you need is some mozzarella cheese, flour, garlic salt, eggs, seasoned breadcrumbs, and oil for frying. Simply cut the cheese into sticks, coat them in flour, egg wash, and breadcrumbs, then freeze for 45 minutes before frying to golden perfection. Pair them with marinara sauce or ranch for the best snack for a game day party. Just be sure to make extra because they will disappear so fast!
2. Glazed Pigs in a Blanket
Dive into the sweet and savory world of glazed pigs in a blanket – the perfect party recipe! Just grab a pack of crescent rolls, some Lit’l Smokies sausages, and make a rich brown sugar-butter glaze with a hint of Dijon mustard and Worcestershire sauce. Simply wrap the sausages in the crescent rolls, give them a good glaze, and pop them in the oven until golden brown. Easy peasy and so delicious! Your Super Bowl party guests will love them!
3. Air Fryer Blooming Onion
Looking to wow your friends and family at your next game day gathering? Then you must try this air fryer blooming onion recipe! This appetizer looks like a restaurant-quality dish, but don’t worry, it’s super easy to make. All you need is a large sweet onion, some basic pantry staples like flour, spices, eggs, and milk, and of course, an air fryer. Simply slice the onion to make it bloom (trust me, it’s easier than it looks), coat it in a flavorful mixture of flour and spices, and pop it in the air fryer! In just 25 minutes, you’ll have a crispy, golden brown blooming onion.
4. Quick and Easy Air Fryer Pickles
Get ready to level up your snack game with these perfectly crispy and crunchy air fryer pickle chips!

No need for messy frying with oil, just perfectly fried recipes every time (and it’s much much healthier too!). Here is an air fryer you can buy from Amazon.
The key to getting that extra crispy coating? Cutting the pickles thin and using the trusty 3-bowl technique which is a breading method that involves dipping pickle slices sequentially in flour, egg wash, and seasoned breadcrumbs to create a crispy coating for air frying. Serve these addictive fried pickles with a side of homemade ranch dressing for the ultimate game day treat. Your friends and family will be begging you for the recipe – trust me, they’re that good!
