Game Day Bites
Because we all know this Sunday is all about the snacks.
I say this every year: you don’t have to enjoy the big game to enjoy all the snacks! (And if you’re wondering why everyone says “big game” instead of S*per B*wl it’s because we don’t want to get sued by the NFL lol). Football food is a top tier cuisine ranging from wings, nachos, sliders and pretty much anything doused in cheese and buffalo sauce. I’ve rounded up some favorites below for you all to enjoy this Sunday.
As I put together this list, I was reflecting on how American culture is shaped by the immigrant communities who live here and just how much that has influenced me and my cooking. The beauty of American culture is that it is a melting pot of different customs, perspectives and experiences all coming together. I hope as you cook and enjoy these recipes with your loved ones we can remember to honor and respect the cultures and traditions that unite us all. I am holding empathy for my own neighbors in Los Angeles and those effected by the violent and inhumane acts of ICE in Minnesota.
Game Day Bites!
Crispy Baked Tacos with Buffalo Ranch- Dare I say the perfect game day meal and one of my top recipes of 2025 for a good reason. The crispy tacos are also a great easy weeknight dinner.
Healthier Buffalo Chicken Dip- A classic for good reason. I make this every year! Don’t let the healthier headline throw you, it tastes just as good as the unhealthy version I promise.
Mexican Pizza Nachos- If the classic Mexican Pizza from Taco Bell and nachos had a baby. Yes, it tastes as good as you’re imagining.
Greek Yogurt Dip with Sizzling Scallions- A fancier version of the classic french onion sour cream dip. Super easy to make too!
Sungold Tomato Baked Brie- It’s almost silly how easy this is to make and it’s insanely delicious. If you can’t find sungolds just use regular cherry tomatoes!
Grilled Cheeseburgers with Bacon Jam & Dill Mayo- Nothing beats a good burger. This is a copycat of the best burger in LA (from Dudley Market) and you honestly won’t go back to plain ketchup and mustard once you try this!
Cowgirl Dip- This dip gets devoured every time I make it! It’s delicious as is or add some cooked ground beef for a heartier dip.
Brown Butter Chunky Monkey Blondies- A classic combo: banana, peanut butter and chocolate meets brown butter gooey blondies. To die for.
Farmarita- A cocktail that will make you feel like you’re doing a good job balancing out the pound of buffalo chicken dip you just ate. Basically a wellness juice with some tequila mixed in?
