What are you serving up for Super Bowl Sunday? I bet you have your favorite right? But did you know that each state apparently has it’s own favorite Super Bowl food too? I had no idea, but it’s true. Illinois apparently loves Buffalo chicken dip and my home state of Indiana relies on pulled pork, but I’m going with Florida’s favorite this year, and making spinach artichoke dip, specifically, my Roasted Poblano Spinach Artichoke Dip.
If Americans had an unspoken motto it might just be “go big, or go home.”
We live that motto to it’s fullest and The Super Bowl is no exception. We treat the Super Bowl like a national holiday. We plan the perfect snack table, we make sure to find coordinating cups and plates, we paint our faces and wear our team’s colors. With the amount of time and preparation that goes into planning these day-long food fests, it’s no wonder then, when Monday rolls around, we are all suffering from “The Super Bowl-Induced Food Coma.”
Did you pop too many jalapeño poppers last night? Or devour dip after dip and spicy chicken wing after fried chicken wing? Fear not! My fellow dietitian foodies and I have plenty of delightful “recovery” recipes for you to enjoy. So, stop feeling bad about what you ate last night and instead, try one of these recipes to get you back on track. And maybe, if you’re going to “go big” again (when it comes to the buffet table), just go home instead.
