Game Day Recipes, What Are Your Favorites?

Hi Friends!   Hump Day already, where is this week going?  My weekend is over and it’s a workday today for me.  Hopefully life is good in your world.

I received this package in the mail from Garden of Eatin’

 

 

A bit about the company and chips:
Garden of Eatin’, the number one brand of organic tortilla chips sold in grocery stores, offers 38 varieties of intriguing flavors including signature Blue Chips to bolder offerings such as Red Hot Blues and, as a healthier alternative to the average chip, Multigrain Blues. Garden of Eatin’ only uses organic corn, harvested by sustainable farming partners.

What do I plan to make for the Superbowl or for any Game Day?  Here are some thoughts so far…

Dips & Spreads
Guacamole

“Spicy Doritos” Cheezy Dip

Vegan 4-Ingredient Hummus 

 Crackers & Chips:

Chili, Soups, & Wraps
Vegan Chili

 

Savory Pumpkin, Potato, & Carrot Soup  

Vegan Quesadillas with Raw Vegan Cheezey Spread and a side salad

Vegan Fajitas with Vegan Sweet Ginger-Lime-Cumin Dipping Sauce

 

So that’s my Game Day Menu.  Or Menu Ideas.  Probably wouldn’t be able to pull off all these recipes on one day, but hey, ideas are good.  

From yesterday’s post, thanks for letting me know all about your Chocolate Frosting preferences.

And that you liked the looks of my latest Chocolate Frosting recipe on top of my Vegan Gluten Free Rice Krispie Treats.

 

Thanks for chiming in also about your fave household cleaning products.  Lots of you had some great homemade and more natural suggestions.

And most of you feel like your life is always so busy, busy, busy.  Moving at warp speed just like I am.  Maybe one day we can slow down.  Til then, the show must go on!

Questions
1. Are you a Sports Fan?
I have posted here before that I am not.  Nothing against it, and I am an athlete, but I just don’t enjoy watching sports on TV or even in the audience.  If I have 3 Hours of Free Time, these are my fantasies!

2. What would you prepare for a Game Day Menu?  Or what do you like to prepare?  Any crowd pleaser tried-and-true recipe hits?
When I linked the recipes in this post, for some reason I conjured up a mental image of beefy men watching football on the couch.  Hearty men screaming at the television and high fiving in the living room.  Hey, I’m honest, that’s what came to mind.  For any of the ladies who love watching football, do your thing, girls.   I know you’ll dig the recipes, too! 

All kidding aside, for most any event, I am a fan of having the recipes and food not being too fancy, but still really tasty. 

And easy for the chef (me!) to make.

Don’t bother telling the game day eaters that all this food is gluten free and vegan.  They might choke on their vegan corn dog.

3. Do you tailgate?
I haven’t done this since high school football games.  See my answer to #1.  Have to be a sports fan to enjoy standing around just waiting for the game to begin.  Or, it would help at least if you’re a fan.  Not to mention, I am a wimp when it comes to chilly weather.  I like to be indoors.

4. Do you have plans to watch any games coming up?
I know that on Thanksgiving Day the football fans are in couch-potato heaven.  And there’s of course the Superbowl in January.  I won’t be watching them but Scott may catch a few minutes of the games.

Have a great day!
