Super Bowl recipes you can make in the oven simultaneously

Whether you’re rooting for the Denver Broncos, the Carolina Panthers, or Potato Cake during Super Bowl 50, you definitely don’t want to miss any of the action because you’re cooking in the kitchen. If you’re like us, your friends have all kinds of dietary restrictions: vegetarianism, lactose intolerance, Paleo-ism. There aren’t a lot of one-snack-fits-all options, which is why we like to make a whole spread. With that in mind, we found six different appetizers that cater to all kinds of tastes and can all be whipped up in under an hour. Best of all? Five of them bake at 350 degrees Fahrenheit, so you can cook a bunch of things simultaneously, while the last one goes in your slow cooker for less than an hour.

Ecovacs Deebot X8 Pro Omni vs. Roborock Saros 10R: which robot vacuum is best?
The Saros 10R dock

If you’re shopping for a premium robot vacuum, you’ve probably stumbled across the Ecovacs Deebot X8 Pro Omni and Roborock Saros 10R. Both are among the best robot vacuums money can buy, with an extensive list of features that makes the devices highly automated -- depending on how often you run them (and the size of your home), it’s not uncommon to go weeks without any manual input.

However, these two robot vacuums are radically different. Not only do they carry different price tags, but they also employ extremely different mopping techniques, different navigation systems, and they churn out different amounts of suction.
