Make This Year's Big Game Tastier Than Ever With Snack Ideas From Athens Foods

CLEVELAND, Jan. 26, 2015 /PRNewswire/ -- A perfectly primed football field in sunny Phoenix, the countdown to kickoff, a stellar Katy Perry half-time show, iconic commercials and tasty food to top it off! The Big Game is just around the corner and Athens Foods makes entertaining easy with delicious recipes using Athens Mini Fillo Shells and Athens Fillo Dough.

Kickoff your viewing party by serving bite-sized snacks filled with bowl-sized flavor like Buffalo Wing Phyllo Bites, Pulled Pork Phyllo Bites, Mexican Phyllo Pizza Bites, Mini Reuben Shells, Mini Sloppy Joe Phyllo Cups or RO*TEL® Phyllo Cups. Crispy Athens Mini Fillo Shells are fully baked and easy-to-use. Combine your favorite ingredients in festive, party-friendly shells that your family and friends will love.

Athens Fillo Dough is also the perfect substitute to give traditional snacking foods a healthy boost. It can be used to wrap appetizing game day additions like cheesy Mozzarella and Marinara Phyllo Sticks, hearty Ham and Cheese Phyllo Strudel or crowd-pleasing Cheddar Phyllo Lil' Smokies. Fillo dough also makes a delicious pizza crust, great for classic recipes or a flavorful spin on them like Greek Spinach Phyllo Pizza.

Celebrate your team's victory and the end of the fourth quarter with a sumptuous spread of awesome desserts. Both Cookies and Cream Mini Phyllo Shells and Petite Cheesecake Cups are easy to prepare and the filling can be made ahead of time. If you're in the mood for chocolate, try whipping up Rocky Road Treats or bake sweet Chocolate Phyllo Chimichangas.

Both Athens Mini Fillo Shells and Athens Fillo Dough contain zero saturated fat, trans fat and cholesterol, and can be found in the dessert section of your grocer's freezer aisle.
