1. Need some help in the recruiting/committing category? I have 3 words for you…Hissy. Fit. Dip. Appropriately named because you are sure to have a hissy fit if you miss out on this dip. You can eat it by itself, by the spoonful, on crackers, in tortillas, mixed with beef or shredded chicken, anything goes. Be aware that once it’s been made, the expectation is that it will always be available. Keep your recruits happy and make this dip to avoid having anyone throw a hissy fit. https://www.plainchicken.com/hissy-fit-dip-football-friday/
2. Taco ‘bout a game changer. This taco dip is a sure fire way to make sure everyone is satisfied, it’s quick and easy to make, and you can even prepare it beforehand which is a bonus. https://funmoneymom.com/ground-beef-taco-dip/
3. No party is complete without salsa of some sort right? I love this recipe for a black bean and corn salsa because it’s easy, simple, and pretty healthy as well. Also I like to add pineapple to mine also just for a little sweet kick. https://funmoneymom.com/black-bean-and-corn-salsa/
4. Tequila + Lime + Queso + Fire = W in the Win column. I haven’t tried this one yet and I’ll be honest this is not one to try at the last minute in a hail mary situation. It contains tequila and requires a kitchen torch or long lighter. Sounds like even if the dip isn’t amazing, the show will be. 😉 https://www.thecookierookie.com/tequila-lime-flaming-queso/
5. Loaded (Insert team/opponent name) Trash Dip…Easily my favorite! https://therecipecritic.com/loaded-texas-trash-dip/
6. If you’re looking for easy and delicious than this spinach dip should be a starter for sure. Part of the reason this one is my favorite is because you can’t mess up anything in a crockpot. https://balancingmotherhood.com/crockpot-spinach-artichoke-dip/
7. Looking for a dip that pairs great with everything? Look no further…This onion dip goes great on chips and pretzels as well as carrots and celery. Plus, I’m a fan of anything with less than 8 ingredients. https://windycitydinnerfairy.com/caramelized-onion-dip/
8. This EASY philly cheesesteak dip is perfect for a big game crowd pleaser. Definitely a top 10. https://littlespicejar.com/easy-philly-cheese-steak-dip/
9. I say bacon, you say cheese. Bacon. Cheese. Bacon. Cheese. This dip is obviously loaded with both and a sure fire crowd pleaser. 6 ingredients plus a ton of add ins if you choose (I like it spicy) and you can make it pre game and store it as well. https://dinnerthendessert.com/hot-bacon-cheese-dip/
10. And no dip list is complete without a buffalo chicken dip so I’ll share my go to. Double this recipe though because this get’s gone y’all. https://www.instrupix.com/the-best-buffalo-chicken-dip/

1. Since gamedays and Dr. Pepper pair so well together, I’d like to share my favorite (6 ingredient) brownie recipe. https://spaceshipsandlaserbeams.com/dr-pepper-brownies/
2. Sometimes football’s tough, grab a snickers (dip)…And a bag of pretzels. https://thedevilishdish.blogspot.com/2017/08/snickers-dip.html
3. There isn’t a recipe for this next one but it’s quick and easy if you’re short on time. Grab some strawberries, pick up some donut holes, and make sure to have a few skewers on hand. Alternate them on the skewers and call it homemade-isn. Strawberry donut kabobs. Another similar dish is brownie bite skewers with strawberries and or bananas. Drizzle with nutella or chocolate for that extra sweet kick. 
4. One of my favorite tailgate dessert dips to make (and eat) despite it being called Buckeye Dip. So yummy. Most people pair with graham crackers or pretzels but I love to use teddy grahams and the kiddos think it’s a fun touch too. https://whatmollymade.com/buckeye-dip/
5. The level of excitement I have for these no bake Bailey’s Irish Cream cookie balls is unrivaled. I haven’t made these yet, but it’s definitely happening soon. You can also freeze these for up to 3 months and just have them sitting on go for those last minute football plans. https://www.lifeloveandsugar.com/no-bake-baileys-irish-cream-cookie-balls/
6. Sometimes you just need a quick go to and don’t have time for a run to the store.

7. Because no one can sit down during games, we have the perfect dessert. Walking strawberry cheesecake. Tip: Pre made vanilla pudding works just as well as cheesecake. https://www.thekeeperofthecheerios.com/2021/03/walking-strawberry-cheesecake-dessert.html
8. Sweet AND salty? Yes please! These peanut bars are great for home or away games and take less than 5 minutes to make. https://www.callmepmc.com/salted-nut-roll-recipe/

10. My favorite game day dessert/comfort food (because my team loses a lot) is banana pudding. We have the hot vs cold, nilla wafers vs chessman cookie, Auburn vs Alabama debates often so while this is my favorite, I know everyone has their own banana pudding favorites and hear me when I saw, none of them are wrong.  https://www.passionforsavings.com/paula-deens-banana-pudding/

I certainly hope you guys are as ready for football weekends, friends and family, great food and dessert, and all of the game day antics as I am. Enjoy some of these yummy treats and let us know which ones are your favorites. Go team!
