You all know how crazy we are about football in this house! We love it, live it… we are a true football family. As I write this post, my boys are getting ready for 8 on 8 Spring Football because playing just in the fall, JUST wouldn’t be enough. As you can imagine, Super Bowl Sunday is like a National Holiday around here. For me, the best part is the Appetizers! I seriously could live on appetizers. Our Super Bowl favorites are Pepperoni Pizza Dip, Skinny Chicken Bacon Bites, Apple Almond Baked Brie, Tomato and Mozzarella Appetizer. This year, we are adding a new Super Bowl Sunday Appetizer to our menu, Onion Cheddar Ciabatta Appetizer! It is so easy and it out of this world!
Ingredients
- 1 Large Vidalia or Yellow Onion
- 1 cup of Mayonnaise
- 2 cups of Sharp Cheddar Cheese (white or yellow)
- 1 long Ciabatta or French Bread sliced in half
- 1 tablespoon Paprika or Gypsy Gold Dust by Intensity Academy
Instructions
- Chop the Onion very fine using a food processor
- Mix Onion, Mayonnaise and Cheddar Cheese in large bowl
- Spread the Onion mixture over both sides of the Ciabatta Bread
- Sprinkle the Paprika the Onion mixture
- Bake at 400 degrees for approximately 20 minutes until the Cheese starts bubbling

Lane @ Supper for a Steal
February 4, 2013 at 10:37 amOMG I am obsessed with ciabatta! Like I could eat it at every meal obsessed. I may or may not be making this for myself for lunch today….
Sarah | Curious Cuisiniere
February 4, 2013 at 10:37 amYum! This looks so tasty!
Anne @ Webicurean
February 4, 2013 at 12:16 pmyah, I’d probably want to eat the whole thing. What always amazes me is how versatile mayonnaise is–I’m not really a big fan, yet I find you can mix it with just about anything, pop it in the oven for a bit, and out comes deliciousness! It’s like a miracle food
Nancy @ gottagetbaked
February 4, 2013 at 12:51 pmI love this, Isabel! So easy but so amazingly delicious. All those flavours must be incredible together. I hope you and your family had a fun, tasty Superbowl Sunday!
Soni
February 4, 2013 at 3:12 pmOh I just love this!!So super easy and kid friendly too!I cannot wait to try this at my home 🙂
Sunithi
February 4, 2013 at 5:07 pmOOh, these look and sound so good. A mix of cheese and onion on bread would be a win with my kids. Much better than the cheese sticks you get at Pizza hut ! Lovely Isabel, trying it !
Wendy (The Weekend Gourmet)
February 4, 2013 at 6:52 pmI might grab a plate of this and go hide in the corner…too good to share! I think this would be good with a simple pasta dish too. I must make very soon, Isabel!
Brianne @ Cupcakes & Kale Chips
February 4, 2013 at 8:55 pmMmm, Isabel, this sounds yummy, but I am wondering – since the onions are copped so fine, do they get fully cooked? I don’t like raw onion flavor, but if they get cooked through, this sounds like a fabulous, easy appetizer.
Cindy
February 4, 2013 at 11:03 pmThis sounds so good Isabel!
Stacy
February 6, 2013 at 9:45 amOnion and mayo and cheese, oh, my! This sounds just perfect any day, forget game day! Just look at that melting cheese and crispy bottom. Yum!
