I'll be honest, I'm not a huge sports fan and I'm especially not a football fan. What I am a fan of is Game Day food. It's spicy, salty and usually greasy and goes well with booze.
Rather than going to a packed sports bar during the Super Bowl I usually make my own pub-style food at home. Here's my recipe for Cheesy Meatball Bombs (think sausage rolls but better). I cut down the prep time by using pre-rolled Italian-style meatballs and Pillsbury biscuit dough. The are the perfect addition to any Super Bowl spread.
Ingredients
20 meatballs (I used Marc Angelo uncooked pre-made Italian pork meatballs)
2 cans of biscuit dough
1/2 cup of grated mozzarella cheese
1 egg
2 tbsp. milk
1 cup of marinara sauce
Instructions
Follow baking directions for meatballs and let cool
Preheat oven to 375F
Flatten each round of dough
Put 1/2 tbsp of mozzarella cheese and a meatball in the centre of each piece of dough
Stretch and form the dough around the meatball, making sure to pinch the dough closed
Whisk the egg and milk together and brush the egg wash on top of each ball
Bake 18-20 minutes until golden brown
Serve hot with marinara sauce for dipping
