The Super Bowl is fast approaching, and that means stuffing your face with beer and good old American food (it also means football, but we’re going to focus on the more important stuff here). When I think of Super Bowl food, I think of comfort foods like chicken wings, chili, pigs in a blanket, anything and everything cheesy, and the all-important and super addicting chips and dip.
I have such a love-hate thing going on with chips and dip. On the one hand, I can’t stop eating it. But on the other hand, sometimes chips and dip is super boring and repetitive. It’s such an easy crowd favorite that no one ever thinks to spruce it up a little—until now, anyway. Since everyone loves the convenience of chips and dip, let’s combine the ease of making homemade dip with the flavors of other delicious Super Bowl foods for the ultimate snacking experience.

One of my absolute favorite things to eat with chips is buffalo chicken dip. It’s creamy, spicy, surprisingly filling, and goes great in one of those chips you use just for scooping! If you don’t like blue cheese, you can just top it off with scallions, fresh jalapeños, or anything you think will give it that extra kick. Why make a mess eating buffalo wings when you can just dip some chips in them instead? Get our Buffalo Chicken Dip recipe.
