Sunday Fun-day Snacks

Easy go-to game day snacks!

It is finally back! Football season, honestly I love football but I think I enjoy the food more. I always invite friends over and try to cook up some delicious treats for everyone to pick on and enjoy! I am going to share my top two recipes today, these are my personal favorites just because of the ease of making them and the of course the taste. These can both be made in advance or within 20 minutes of game-time!

The Deviled Egg recipe is from my Aunt, she has made these for me and my family for years. Anytime I fly back home I ask her to make me some. Since I live 800 miles away, I decided I would have to start making them down here now. The filling is so creamy and delicious that I don't have any words, I just do a happy dance. Don't you love those moments? When food is so good, it just makes you dance! I know I do!

The Jalapeno Popper recipe was one I came up with to just put together some of my favorite flavors. The cream cheese filling really helps to calm down the heat from the Jalapeno, and the Bacon adds a nice smokey flavor. These are a staple when it comes to Sunday game-day treats, easy to eat and easy to make. Follow along for the recipes below.
