Some of us love watching the football, others love the legendary commercials or the amazing halftime performances, but I think we can all agree Super Bowl food is always fun. It gives us a chance to eat some junk and comfort food without having to feel guilty about it.
Whether you love to indulge in junk food or eat a little healthier, here are a few recipes for game day.
