The Super Bowl is a good time to have a dip By Donna Lee Journal-Bulletin Food Editor Football fans probably won't spend much time in the kitchen this Sunday, when the Packers meet the Broncos in the Super Bowl in San Diego. It's more likely that they'll order a pizza or bring home a bucket of chicken or hot wings. Super Bowl Sunday is the busiest day of the year for food takeout and delivery services, according to the research firm NPD Group. Fans also stock up on crunchy food. They're followed, in order, by tortilla chips, pretzels, popcorn and nuts.
Good bets are sandwiches or stuffed breads such as calzone, lasagna or mugs of chili.
It seems a bit effete to serve broccoli soup, but that's the only recipe I have to represent Green Bay. It's a favorite of quarterback Brett Favre. For Broncos fans, we've included the guacamole named number one in Denver. It's a fiery version from the Fort restaurant. Makes 4 servings.
