9. Sweet Treats: Round out your Super Bowl snack selection with sweet treats like brownies, cookies, or a dessert platter. Consider football-shaped cookies or a themed cake to add a festive touch to your dessert spread.

Although most Americans go to Super Bowl parties to let loose and let their hair down you will always have that one guest who is tracking their macros or on a super strict diet so it's important to be prepared to offer them a healthier option. According to local dietitian Jamie Hocker, "If you are trying to keep it somewhat healthy and save your carbs for all the beer, use a low-fat bean dip and cut up raw vegetables, like red and green bell peppers, carrots, celery, tomatoes, olives, etc." Your health-conscious guest will thank you for providing this option and it'll show that you go above and beyond the make your party guests feel cared for.
