15 Dishes You Have to Make for Super Bowl 50

The fiftieth anniversary of the Super Bowl is quickly approaching, and we can't wait for this year's game.

Avocado Chipotle Chicken Wings

These chicken wings use creamy avocados and flavorful cilantro to create a crispy, Mexican-inspired finger food. Use the extra avocado and cilantro to make guacamole to snack on while you watch the game.

Buffalo Mac n' Cheese

Three cheeses and a kick of spice give this comfort favorite a whole new story. For the ultimate trio, combine any two sharp cheeses, in this instance, two bold Irish Cheddars, with a smoother Gouda. When blended together, they make for a creamy, cheesy, spicy dream — one spoonful will just not do the trick. — Francesca Borgognone
