      Hi Stephy,

      This is quite the list! It must have taken you a long time to make it. Easy is key when it comes to super bowl recipes. You don’t want to be stuck over the stove as your party guests have all the fun. We actually came up with a perfect game day appetizer. It’s our hot honey tater tots. It couldn’t be easier to make a lot of them, and it has that “can’t eat just one” quality.
