Answers:
You could do a cheese fondue with bread & green apples cut for dipping. You can use a crockpot if you don't have a fondue pot.
hot wings!
Frozen pizza cut into squares, and chips & salsa
Macoronie& Cheese, Fish Sticks, Chicken Fingers. Goog Luck.
buy toothpicks, a slab of cheese, pineapple rings or chunks and some hot dogs.
cut the cheese into squares put a square on each toothpick following by a pineapple chunk then a section of hotdog
yummmm
chips and dip and pinwheels are always party favorites. both cheap and easy.
chips and salsa is good and also finger sandwhiches, also you can make pasta
well it depends on what tpye of party. if its pre superbowl you know every one loves pizza. and chips beer just junk food. if its a classy party you might want to serve thing like shrimp and mini
horderves and you can buy those already cooked just heat and eat at walmart etc.
nachos with cheese
cut up some weiners into bite sized pieces, then poke each with a toothpick. Serve with a sauce made of half grape jelly and half ketchup that heat up on the stove and stir together. It sounds weird, but people love them.
carrot sticks and pita bread with hummus
a shrimp ring with some of that red seafood sauce.
spinach dip and sourdough bread

you need tortilla chips , re fried beans, salsa, and taco cheese. sour cream to top.
combine re fried beans and salsa spread on nacho chip. top with taco cheese put into oven at 350 until cheese is melted. instant appetizer to easy huh.
I always love a "chip -n- dip" type of party... Here are some easy and cheap ideas that always go over great...
If you're looking for something different. You can make a cream-cheese dip. It is 3 pkgs. (8 oz each) of cream cheese + 1/4 cup of brown sugar or regular refined sugar (your preference) + 1 tsp vanilla extract. and mini chocolate chips...
What you do is allow the cream cheese to soften, mix in the sugar and vanilla, shape into a ball, roll in mini chocolate chips and allow to set in the refrigerator (usually at least 2 hours). Serve this with those graham cracker sticks- you could even make it interesting by using some chocolate ones and some cinnamon or honey- My family LOVES this treat at parties, etc.
Also, since you are using it for a superbowl party, you could get really creative and find a cake pan which wilton makes that is the shape of a football and use that instead of the standard "ball" shape...
As for a more hearty dip for chips...My husband always relies on me to make my regular, popular cheese dip. It's simple and is always gone by the end of the night. There are TONS of variations on these type of recipes, but here is what I always use... (The amount depends on how much dip you are wanting to make- This is for a full crock pot). I pkg. velveeta, 1 can of rotel (drained) OR 1 Jar of salsa (depends on your preference), 1 pkg. owens sausage (cooked, drained and chopped), 1 can cream of chicken soup (this keeps the dip from getting too thick or gunky)! Serve this with the "dippable" tortilla chips and voila! It pretty much makes itself!
Hope these help you out!
Creamy peanut butter dip.
1 cup of vanilla yogurt
1/2 cup of creamy peanut butter
1/8 of a teaspoon of cinnamon
1/2 cup of whipped cream ( can be eye measured)
Mix everything together, then serve with apples of bananas. :)
P.S. good question
Chicken fingers, mac and cheese, hot wings, browines, chips, dip there are some good luck!
chip and dip
ship and salsa
finger sandwiches
hot wings
chili is inexpensive and easy
potatoe salad
Enjoy your party
Ha, you dont even have to cook this. Crackers and cheese, with sausage. Cut up put on a tray, make it look nice and vralla. Also, you could have chips and dip, like tostitos with the cheese and the red sauce dip. or even maybe ritz crackers with squeeze cheese (that could even get fun). If you want someting hot, I would do hot wings, french frieds, chicken strips, something of that sort. If you want a desert, go for a cake, brownies, cupcakes, etc. Good luck!!
Pizza and its not that expensive.
You can never go wrong with chips and your favorite kind of dip! That's pretty cheap. Also you can buy frozen pizzas from just about ANY store, and if you don't want to take the time to cook, pizza places offer special deals most days, so Pizza and Hot Wings are probably a good idea! Pop, Beer, Punch. That's not very pricey.
If your party is gonna be a little more fancy though, you might consider some shrimp, and cocktail sauce (The shrimp may be a little expensive though, depending on where and what kind you buy.) Also something to consider is sparkling cider. It costs around $3.00 to $5.00 a bottle.
Also, for any kind of party, try some cheese and crackers, maybe with some summer sausage or deli meat on the side. Green or Black olives go great with those, but if you don't like olives, the cheese and crackers will do fine on their own.
Chips and dip. Simple and cheap. And tasty.
Fast? There are plenty of varieties of h'orsdevours in the freezer section! But fast and cheap? Chips 'n salsa!
Hot dogs, hamburgers, finger sandwiches, and make sure you have drinks.
Cheap party foods : Hormel chili/cream cheese dip, salsa and chips, taco dip, mini hot dogs in barbecue sauce, spinach dip, cheese and sausage platter, veggie tray ( baby carrots, broccoli tops, celery sticks, mushrooms, cauliflower florets) with dill dip.
Try the freezer section at your favorite grocery store for appetizers.
Eggs are really cheap, easy to hard boil and deviled eggs are the first to disappear at any party/gathering.
And remember that 36 eggs make 72 servings. Also a chopped jalapeno or a dash of horseradish in few will spice up the batch.
