There’s that little football game happening Sunday down in New Orleans — that game we call the Super Bowl. Sure, the action on the field is exciting, but you can score a few touchdowns yourself with a great lineup of food.

A spread of finger foods is the name of the game when it comes to serving a crowd. And while most party menus on Super Bowl Sunday will include a big platter of wings and celery with the appropriate dips, you’re sure to score with a platter of Pigs in a Blanket.
Pigs in a Blanket is a much-loved appetizer/snack from the days of our childhood. They can be so simple — a two-ingredient favorite with just a smoked sausage wrapped in a ribbon of crescent-roll dough. But we’ve grown up, and so have Pigs in a Blanket, so they can also be gussied up — and should be — for even a casual gathering.
