Super Bowl Sunday 101: Treats, Tips and More!

This article is written by a student writer from the Her Campus at Brandeis chapter.

This Sunday is the 47th Super Bowl.  Here are some easy tips and some delicious recipes for those hosting Super Bowl parties this Sunday.

If you are hosting the party, then make sure you plan so you don’t have a giant mess once everyone has left.

  •  Use plastic plates and cups: These can be recycled once you are finished so if you live in a dorm without a dishwasher, you don’t have to worry about hand washing a lot of dishes.
  • Make if festive: Hang up banners and even some lights. Even if you are just watching the game with your friends, adding some decorations will make your party and dorm room festive.
  • Don’t stress about the mess: If you are the party host, remember to have fun and don’t worry about the mess in your room. Ask your friends to help you clean up after the game before they all leave.

Whether you are or are not throwing the party, good food is key.  Here are some easy recipes, some you don’t need an oven for and some you do.

1.     Baked Cocktail Meatballs: These are easy, small and delicious. If you love meatballs, these are very easy to make, no matter what kind of oven you are using. The recipe for these easy prep and delicious meatballs can be found here: http://www.foxnews.com/recipe/baked-cocktail-meatballs
