10 Game Day Finger Food Ideas/Recipes
Meatball Sliders–Use prepackaged meatballs, toss in the crockpot, and these sliders are ready in no time at all. I love that this recipe is so easy to make and uses a crockpot (my favorite small appliance). It’s a perfect game day food that even the men can manage with ease.
Super Quick Chili Bites–Chili is always a great game day food especially since it’s usually so cold in Northern Michigan. It’s a perfect way to keep everyone warm while enjoying the game. I love serving them in bread bowls, which means fewer dishes to clean later. You can even build a chili bar and have the bread bowls, Crockpot of chili, lettuce, tomato, cheese, onions, and such all in bowls for everyone to assemble their own.
Buffalo Chicken Bites–Too spicy for me, but the kids love them. Dip in ranch of blue cheese dressing and serve with celery sticks on the side.
Football Eggs–A fun way to take deviled eggs up a notch or two. Plus how easy is it to make deviled eggs into football shapes. I love it. You can use this recipe, or could use your favorite game day deviled egg recipe and simply decorate with this fun idea.
Bacon-Wrapped Jalapeno Chicken Bites–Bacon anything is going to be delicious. I make with and without the jalapeno. Ok, bacon anything is a go in my book. It’s easy enough to make without the jalapenos. Bacon is always an ultimate Game Day Food!
Walking Tacos–A family favorite. Again, another great recipe to make because there aren’t any dishes to do afterward. Don’t like Fritos? Make with Doritos instead. Set up a taco bar and let everyone assemble their own walking taco!
