Three cheers for the Big Game that is quickly approaching! Since watching the final playoff game the other day, there’s been so much excitement in the air in my neck of the woods! It’s been a long time since our team has made it this far, so we’re definitely going to be celebrating BIG!

So to jump right into the game time festivities, I started coming up with big plans for our big game menu. I wanted something with big flavor that would score big points with my family’s taste buds. With all of the big things going on, I actually started thinking small! Yup, our #1 pick for our game time snack spread is my mini Jalapeno Meatloaf & Mashed Potato Poppers, but don’t let their tiny appearance fool you. They’re loaded with the big time flavor that will be the real MVP of the evening!

Some people love the winter season, and some may prefer the warmer summer months or the crisp cool Fall breeze. As much as I love all of the changing seasons we have in this life, there’s only one season of the year that gets me really excited. If there’s one thing that I know to be true, it’s this:

There’s nothing in this world quite like football season! 😉

It’s about to get real serious up in here, y’all. I mean, really serious. When game day rolls around in this house, you better strap on your helmet and bring your appetite with you, ‘cuz once our team hits the field on Saturday, you better believe our snackin’ game is in a league of it’s own. We don’t mess around with the game day grub, either. This time we’re bringing the heat and packing in some serious crunch with my Smokin’ Spicy Onion Rings with Sweet Heat Dipping Sauce – and it’s going to take your taste buds all the way to the end zone, guaranteed! Plus, I’m throwing a secret ingredient into the mix that’ll definitely make this game day snack hard to beat!

Whether you’re tailgating with friends or homegating on your couch, there’s one thing that is an absolute must to make your game day experience a winning one: Good Food

We’re a couple of weeks into football season, and each week I’ve been thinking of new ways to “spice” up our game day spread. I could stick to my Southern roots and make a few more traditional things such as BBQ with all the fixin’s, but that’s just not saucy enough for me this time around.

This time I’m taking it way down south (as in south of the border) with a few twists on some of my favorite Mexican-inspired dishes, and we’re counting down the minutes until kickoff so we can dig in to my Kickoff Mexican Caviar and Cream Cheese Chicken Taquitos!

Do you feel it? That slight change in the morning air? You know, that tiny little preview of Summer fading into Fall when the temperatures start changing? Even though it was for a very, very brief moment this morning, I finally felt it. It’s been long awaited, and it was definitely warmly welcomed. Fall is my absolute favorite time of the year. Sure, the cool weather, cozy long sleeved shirts and boots and all of the pumpkin flavored things are great, but my heart loves this time of year for one thing in particular:

Football

The excitement that football season brings is unlike any other. Here in the South, football is bigger than big, and the devotion to our teams is unmatched. The hometown and state rivalries are beginning to gear up. Football schedules are going up on the refrigerator and everyone is making plans to tailgate, throw a get-together or crowd around the couch to catch all of the big games this year. Yup, when I caught that brief, cool breeze this morning, I definitely felt it. Football season is upon us, y’all!
