I generally spend the superbowl grocery shopping, as the stores are like a graveyard then. But for these types of parties you can't go wrong with sausage balls and our own Earl Funk's Bar-b-cups. Or you can take a block of cream cheese, soften it, then pour a cup (or more if you like) of salsa over it. And yes, the cheese dip below is always a winner. I have a friend who moved out to the Bay Area, and at a housewarming party she made traditional crock pot queso as per below. (she doesn't add the milk) At first the locals turned their nose up at it, calling it "cheese whiz stew", but then they tasted it, and that was all it took.

Post your contribution to the party to the list! On this week's Cooking In The Dark Show I make Hot Wings and my Velveeta Cheese Dip (recipe below) Listen to the show by visiting the archive page for Cooking In The Dark at Cookinginthedark.libsyn.com or if you have an Amazon Echo or Google Play, just ask it to play Cooking In The Dark podcast! I am rooting for the commercials this year...and a close game! Dale's Velveeta Cheese Dip one large box of Velveeta cheese; about 2 or 3 lb box, , one can of original Rotel tomatoes, a half cup of milk and a crock pot... That is all you will need! Well, of course a couple big bags of chips too! I cut the cheese into chunks so it will melt faster and toss it into the crock pot. open the rotel tomatoes and drain then dump in and lastly add the milk. If you want your cheese dip a little thicker, omit the milk... I sometimes will also brown a pound of hot ground sausage or hamburger and toss in the crock pot too! If I need it in a hurry, I turn the crock pot to high...stirring about every 30 minutes or so...and heat until melted, usually about 2 hours or so and then turn to the low or warm setting if your crock pot is so equipped. if i have time to spare, I heat on low until melted, again stirring about every 30 minutes and then switch to warm setting once melted.
