dovahfel makes my all-time favorite - pineapple chunks wrapped in bacon strips and baked in the oven.

My MIL makes a shrimp cocktail spread that is amazing. Take a block of cream cheese and place it on a dish. Combine those tiny little salad shrimps (I'm sure there's a technical term for that...) with cocktail sauce and pour over cream cheese. Serve with sturdy crackers. We particularly like Triscuts.

Awww, shucks!

We have a go to chip dip that we make for the games all the time.

In a dish, spread a package of cream cheese, then dump in a can of chili (we do 2 to up the meat:cheese ratio), then top it with some shredded cheese (we usually go for a Mexican or taco blend). Bake until hot and shredded cheese is melted.

Delicious!! Definitely having some Sunday!!

This "recipe" has been in my family forever, and it's ALWAYS my go-to.  So easy, yet SO delicious.  We call it crack dip.

So good!! Our family just calls it chip dip, and everyone knows what chip dip you're talking about when you just say "chip dip".

Of, I forgot to include in my original post that we put a small can of green chilies in it too, and a spash of Frank's Red Hot sauce. Gives it a bit more flavor. I'm excited for some on Sunday!

With the Super Bowl just around the corner, what are some simple recipes for your favorite party hors d'oeurvres?  Maybe we can inspire each other!

My fave (and always a hit) - candied bacon chips.  So easy to make also!  Take 1 pound bacon and lay strips out on a cookie sheet.  Take 2 cups brown sugar and mix it with 2 tablespoons dry mustard powder.  Spread the mixture all over the bacon (use it all!) and then bake at 250 degrees for an hour.  Dry the bacon on parchment paper and then cut up into pieces.  SO delicious!!

Even more fun- wrap the bacon around either cocktail weenies or cut sausages, put in crockpot, dump brown sugar on top, turn on for however long.

I've baked mine in the oven and done the slow cooker way. Either way, these are the most amazing weenies I've ever put in my mouth.

Jalapeno cheese poppers. Hollow out the chilli, fill with any cheese, dip in batter and fry. Yumness.

My mom makes sloppy koe meat and then heats up nacho cheese and the puts thee hot cheese and a scoop of sloppy joe on tortilla chips. It's really yummy.

I'm the biggest fan of buffalo dip. I'm looking forward to the game just for that!!!
