If you were to ask me when the Super Bowl is, I would say, “On a Sunday?” That’s right, I have no idea when the Super Bowl is, except that I’m fairly certain that it’s on a Sunday. Also, if you were to ask me who was playing in the Super Bowl, I would also not have the foggiest idea of which teams are facing off. Has it even been decided yet? Fortunately for me, Josh doesn’t really care either, although I’m sure that he at least knows who is playing and when they are playing. He’s a guy. Guys need to know these things so they can tweet to their friends and talk about it at work. I’m a stay at home mom. I don’t think Grace, Eden, or Christian would care much. The girls would probably stare at me like I’d lost my mind and try to bring me back to earth by telling me which new My Little Pony they just acquired on their iPad game and Christian would probably just stare.

That being said, if I were to EVER go to a Super Bowl party, I’m sure I would be the one in the corner stuffing my face with all of the Super Bowl goodies.

This sloppy joe recipe is my favorite. I’ve tried all sorts of different versions, including the canned version and this one just trumps them all.  So much delicious flavor is packed into these little sliders! It will just blow your mind and make you stand up with your arms stretched above your head yelling, “TOUCHDOWN!” Or not. You could also just sit there nodding your head over how good these are while you watch the game. Either one would be fine by me. #notpicky

These are perfect little eats for a Super Bowl party because they are in tiny little sliders, which allow for more food on your plate, but also friendly enough for the kiddos. Josh and I’ve decided that we should make all of our burgers and sandwiches with sliders because our youngest daughter Eden can actually get her tiny mouth around them!

These should definitely be on your Super Bowl Party menu! Or your dinner menu. You can’t lose. Unlike the Super Bowl. Because, someone always loses. Bwhahahaha! I mean, “Oh…that’s too bad.”
