CNN: Throw a Super Bowl party in style

That means adding some pizzazz to your party. Your guests should expect the unexpected. Surprise them by serving stuffed shells for instance. It doesn't take long to prepare a platter of these mouth-watering snacks, but it is so much tastier then a batch of ordinary chicken wings.

Everyone can throw a party, but that does not necessarily mean it will be a success. It is too easy to put out a plate piled high with ready-to-eat, store-bought chicken wings. Anyone can fill a huge bowl with ripped-open bags of chips and place them next to a tub full of dip from jars and a stack of canned drinks.

It is all too predictable and by no means a guarantee for a victory. People may be talking about the Super Bowl game for years to come, but the party you threw at your abode will hardly be remembered. If you want to make a lasting impression you have to do something different.

You better make plenty stuffed shells to go around, because everyone will be drooling over them and asking for more. Compliments galore will fill the room and don't be surprised when everyone agrees to have next year's Super Bowl party at your house again.

You can call this adding style to your party in a nut shell, but I suspect you never considered it would come in a pasta shell!
