I love Super Bowl food!  I even have a whole Pinterest board dedicated to small, bite sized, crowd-pleasing snacks.  This year we went to our friend Carlo’s house to celebrate this all-American holiday so we decided to go with something simple and easy portable — pretzel bites and queso.

I usually do most of the cooking in the house but Rob has been on a whole “I want to learn how to be a good husband” kick so he helped me whip the whole thing together.  I am not going to lie, I was very impressed with his kneading skills.  It takes a lot of muscle power to knead dough, so he definitely came in handy during that section.

We used this recipe from Tracey’s Culinary Adventures.  I didn’t read the directions right and we mixed all of the wet and dry ingredients together at first, but everything still tasted perfect.  This recipe was VERY easy and received an A++++ from us!

For queso, all we did was mix a can of Rotel with a block of Velveeta cheese in a small crock pot.  I received the recipe from one of my fellow Junior Leaguers.  She is from Texas and apparently they call it “liquid gold” over there.
