Cheesy Football

Can you contain your excitement?

• Turn over a football helmet and line with foil and napkins. Place smaller bowl of dip inside. Use napkins to make a padded base on the table to keep helmet in place.

JELL-O^® Sports Team JIGGLERS^®

Set the table with team spirit for the big game.

• Make these fun JELL-O^® Sports Team JIGGLERS^® in your team’s colors.
• Use team colors for napkins, plastic utensils and plates.
• Wrap place settings with "coach's" whistles or small team pennants.

Football Party Buffet

Hot spreads and dips can be assembled, covered and refrigerated up to 2 days in advance.

• Bake them just before guests arrive so they're hot out of the oven at party time.
• Note that you may need to increase the baking time by 5 to 10 min. to ensure that the spread is heated through.

I'm-a-Hero Sub Sandwich

Expecting a crowd? For an easy entree, build an oversize sub or two.

• Start by cutting a large loaf of Italian bread in half lengthwise, then spread the cut sides with KRAFT Mayo Real Mayonnaise.
• Layer the bottom half of the bread with your favorite OSCAR MAYER Sliced Meats, KRAFT Cheese Slices and other sandwich toppings; cover with top half of bread.
• Cut the sandwich into slices before the crowd descends and you can sail smoothly through the party.

Saucy Slow-Cooker Party Wings

Let people serve themselves during breaks and halftime with a buffet table.

• Keep party food warm by placing hot dishes (covered) in a low 200°F oven. Replenish the buffet table as needed.
• Make simple paper pennants to direct fans to the food. “Pre-Game” or “First Down” could be appetizers, “Half Time” could be entrees and “Third Quarter” is a great time for sweets.
