Appetizers

Appetizers are probably the most important game day snacks to have. Why, you ask? Because if you are having a get-together, it’s likely that guests will start arriving hours before the game actually starts and you want to have plenty of snacky food on-hand! Especially if you will also be serving adult beverages!

Sandwiches

While appetizers are great – and personally I’d rather munch on a to of appetizers than an actual meal for game day parties, some people prefer a more substantial food choice. That’s where a good ol’ sandwich comes into play. Oh, and if they are small – like sliders – that’s all the better for game day snacks!

Chili

What would a game day get-together be without chili? Whether it’s eaten in a bowl, with chips, on hot dogs, or a burger, chili is versatile and a sure crowd-pleaser.

Beverages

And of course, you need beverages! You may want to have adult beverages and mocktails, to give options for all guests!

Welcome!

As a busy wife and mom who also works a full time job, I try to have dinner done in 30 minutes or less so I can spend more of my evenings with my hubby and baby girl, so what you will find here are recipes that are mostly-healthy, quick and easy. Of course I have desserts, less healthy and more time-intensive meals as well (everything in moderation!), but all-in-all, you can count on weeknight friendly options, all made with love and dished up with a side of life, love, and family!
