Keyword: boards, party food, super bowl
Servings: 8 people

Ingredients

Hot Appetizers

  • Buffalo cauliflower "wings"
  • soft pretzels see above for resource
  • chicken tenders

Dips and Spreads

  • Ranch or blue cheese
  • spicy + honey mustards
  • Buffalo hummus
  • guacamole
  • ketchup or BBQ sauce for chicken tenders

Charcuterie

  • "game day" meat like beef jerky, chicharrones, pepperoni, and turkey pepperoni

Instructions

  • Prepare Buffalo cauliflower and chicken tenders according to recipes, and frozen soft pretzels according to package directions.
  • While the soft pretzels are heating, prepare the dips. Put each dip in a small bowl or ramekin, then place on the serving board or tray.
  • Place the remaining vegetables, chips, cheeses, and charcuterie on the board around the dips, placing them near the dips or sauces with which they naturally match, and leaving space for the hot Buffalo cauliflower, soft pretzels, and chicken tenders, e.g. Buffalo cauliflower and celery with blue cheese dip, vegetables with Ranch or hummus, corn chips with guacamole and chile con queso.
  • Set aside about one-third to one-half of each of the hot foods and place in a low oven to keep warm until you have to refresh the board. Place the Buffalo cauliflower, soft pretzels and chicken tenders on the board in their reserved spots.
  • Serve immediately.
