Let’s Get Ready For Some Football, Fools!

During quarantine, football party food is just as important as the game itself. Fast food wings and grocery store veggie trays just won’t cut it. That’s why we’re gathering all of our favorite football party recipes and posting a new one all season long. From dips like buffalo chicken dip to a sheet cake with a frosting combination designed to replicate your favorite team’s colors, these football party foods are guaranteed winners and deserve to be displayed on your tailgate spread. Be sure to check out our football party recipes perfect for toting to your next outdoor tailgates like slow-cooker sliders or sheet pan nachos. Guests will be more fascinated by your home-made jalapeno poppers or slow-cooked turkey meatballs than the actual game. Get ready for kick-off by preparing these easy to make and grab and go recipes that are perfect for your game day parties.

First up, slow-cooker buffalo chicken dip.

Now, this is something to cheer about: Everyone’s favorite game-time dip getting a slow-cooker makeover! All you need to do is drop the first 10 ingredients in the slow cooker and then let it do all the work while you handle the rest of your last-minute watch-party prep. The recipe calls for a cup of hot sauce. We opted for Frank’s Red Hot but feel free to sub in your favorite. A combination of cream cheese, shredded cheese, crumbled blue cheese, and sour cream makes this one creamy appetizer. The dip will cook for an hour and a half to two hours, but only takes 10 minutes of hands-on time. Just before serving, stir in 1/4 cup of chopped scallions for an extra punch of flavor. Serve with celery sticks, carrots sticks, and your favorite tortilla chips. Buy pre-chopped celery and baby carrots to cut down on prep time. With ten half-cup servings, this recipe was made for a crowd. Serve it straight out of the slow-cooker for a no-fuss presentation.
