Happy days are here again in my household. Of course, I am talking about Mr. Shop This! He has both baseball (Go Cubbies!) and football to watch. Pretty exciting for sports fans. All of that TV and tailgating is hard work and makes one hungry. Time to feed the fans.
HERE: 19 Game Day Recipes & Cooks' Tools
I love to start with dessert first! These cute cupcakes will get the party going, and you don't even have to make them. Designed exclusively for Williams-Sonoma by More Cupcakes....my favorite Chicago cupcakery! A great idea to send to a college student.

Everyone loves good Guac, but it is kind of expected. The general big bowl of guacamole also encourages douple dipping. This one bite recipe eliminates the double dip.
Half Baked Harvest
Like a deconstructed Buffalo Chicken Wing, but so much better. Can you believe that I have never had wings? It has something to do with my bird phobia. I realize the world loves them, and your guests will love this recipe too.

Once again, this is how you get around double dipping. Take everyone's favorite hot dip and stuff a fresh homemade pretzel. Doesn't this sound like the best sandwich ever?
Half Baked Harvest
A sweet and spicy combo with a refreshing bite of cilantro. This dish promises to be crunchy but chewy, soft and melty. Most of all it is super flavorful and oh so good looking.

Grilling on the go. This briefcase barbecue is made for tailgating!

I have never tried these. Don't they sound interesting? The mix of the sweet potato with the spicy salsa verde is a nice twist on the classic appetizer.

The only dip you need.
Host The Toast
Yes, you read that right! If you love a sweet and savory bite, this is it. The bacon wrapped rings have been dipped in a honey, soy, and sriracha glaze. Oh boy!
Kirbie's Cravings
This dish changes everything. It is the thing to bring or serve for those who do not enjoy cooking. I wish I had thought of this.

Crockpot Carne Asada Beer Chili
Every year I try to improve my chili recipe. This is the one I am going to try this Fall. As the author says: "Hello, avocado, jalapeños, cheddar cheese, grilled corn, green onions, FRITOS and maybe even some sour cream or greek yogurt, if you’re into it!" Enough said.
Half Baked Harvest
Kalua Pork Sliders
Made in the slow cooker, this meat is flavorful and juicy. Perhaps it is the coarse Hawaiian Sea Salt, the recipe calls for. It is all topped with a blueberry mago salsa, which makes it super fresh. Find the Sea Salt at Amazon

These are sure to be a gameday winner. They are super fudgy and loaded with caramel, pecans and pretzels. Find that cute Table Runner at Swoozies and the recipe at

I don't find bean dip very interesting. This recipe changes my mind. The idea of pairing smokey chipotle with sweet raspberry sounds fabulous!
