Ask people what comes to mind when they think of a Super Bowl party and they'll usually say a big noisy do. There are buckets of wings.Endless pizzas and heroes. Kegs. Tthere's always has to be kegs. Yet supposed you don't want that.A smallish Super Bowl party may be your choice instead.
There's nothing wrong with wanting to celebrate by yourself or with one or two good friends. There's no set in stone law that says you can't have that. Besides the smaller the crowd the more you can splurge on food and drink. There's also no shortages on popular dishes like chili or chicken. Everyone can get an equal share. You can still have wings but maybe a dozen at the most if there's three people. Another idea is just buying a rotisserie chicken with a couple of containers of different salads. like macaroni and potato.There may even be enough for leftovers to take home (or to make into a yummy chicken salad sandwich for work) If it;s just you and a friend celebrating then treat yourself to a shrimp plattter or crab legs. This last is an easy make. They can be either steamed or baked and served with melted butter or lemon.You could also get chopped lobster and make a tasty lobster toll to munch on while watching the game.If that's your game plan, then skip the beer and serve champagne with it.
Chili is a another Supr Bowl food tradition.Yes,it's usually mde in great quantities to satisfy a large and hungry group. but you could make a lesser quantity. Just halve the amounts needed to satisfy one or two people. If you do wan t to make a large amount, thne freeze it for another dinner.Pizza is another game day classic . You can order smaller pies from Blaze .One small can actually feed two people and they can throw in a salad and dessert too. Another idea is make your own. Think bagel or English muffin pizzas. This is an easy cook of just halving the bgels and muffins and then layering sauce and mozzarella on top. You can ask about topping or have guests add their own toppings. Put out sliced onions, black olive pepperoni slices , and assorted chopped veggies. French bread pizza is perfect for two people.It's a little more filling but still a great bite for watching half time since it's only going ro be you and possibly another , then open up a bottle of good red wine.
A small Super Bowl party is just as good as a large one. There can still be fun food and drink. Just perfet for a party of one, two or three,.
