Recipe

Ready Time: 4 hrs


• place a slice of bread on a work surface; top with 1 slice cheddar cheese and 3 slices ham. cover with a second slice of bread to create a sandwich. repeat with remaining bread slices, cheddar cheese, and ham.
• pour salsa con queso into a 3-inch bowl representing the center field logo. draw a logo atop the salsa con queso using chile-garlic sauce and 1 tablespoon sour cream. place bowl in the center of a 9x13-inch baking dish.
• spread tomatillo salsa into the bottom of the 9x13-inch baking dish and around the center field 'logo' for the 'field'. fill a piping bag with 1/2 cup sour cream. pipe 9 lines of sour cream the 'field' representing 10-yard lines.
• cut two 3-inch pieces of cheddar cheese representing the base of the goal post. cut pepperoni sticks into two 3-inch pieces, two 2-inch pieces, and four 1-inch pieces. secure each 3-inch piece of pepperoni stick to each cheddar cheese piece using a toothpick. secure the 2-inch pieces of pepperoni stick horizontally to the 3-inch pieces using a toothpick. secure the 1-inch pieces of pepperoni sticks as the sides of the goal post using toothpicks.
• place each goal post into the center of a 9x5-inch loaf pan. spread hummus around goal post representing 1 end zone. spread red pepper hummus into the other 9x5-inch loaf pan representing the other end zone.
• cover a table with a clean disposable table cloth. arrange the 'field' in the center of the table. place 'end zones' on either end of 'field'. secure 2 sets of 5 and 2 set of 2 magazine holders together using duct tape for the 'seating sections'; arrange around the 'field'.
• fill the 'seating sections' with carrots, broccoli, cheese crackers, blue corn tortilla chips, potato chips, pita chips, and buttery round crackers.
