(Family Features) When it's time to watch the big game, kick the party up a notch with foods that will keep the party going from kickoff to post-game interviews.

These ideas from Bob Evans will keep fans satisfied throughout the season:

Dips and Appetizers: Finger foods made more fun with a little extra zip.

• Sausage con queso dip - Spicy sausage, cheese and your favorite salsa - a tasty combo with just the right amount of heat.
• 7-layer taco dip - Made with Bob Evans Original Roll Sausage, it's zesty, it's cheesy and it's tasty. Just don't forget the tortilla chips for dipping.
• Spicy meatballs - Serve on their own or in a hoagie bun.
• Wings - Jerk, Buffalo, or barbecued. Have plenty of extra napkins.

Sides: Skip the same old stuff and spice things up.

• Corn on the cob with chipotle lime butter.
• Jalapeño cornbread.
• Smokin' hot baked beans.

Desserts: Sugar and spice - how very, very nice.

• Gingersnaps or molasses-spice cookies.
• Snickerdoodle cookies.
• Vanilla ice cream with cinnamon topping.
• Cheesecake brownie bites with raspberry sauce.
