She Wraps Mini Hot Dogs In Dough. But When She’s Finished? SO Unexpected!

One of the best parts about football season is enjoying the pre-game parties, and tailgating is a great excuse to get together with friends, cheer on your favorite team, and enjoy some delicious food.

While chicken wings and beer may be the go-to snack on game day, I'm always looking to put a twist on traditional recipes (like S'mores Nachosthrowing a party at home, you can make these mouthwatering recipes in a snap.

When I was finished making these game day snacks, everyone wanted to see if they tasted as good as they looked and smelled. The verdict? People couldn't get enough!

Of course, anyone who has participated in tailgating parties knows that they can get messy, especially when trying to juggle your beverage in one hand and food in the other. That's why I'm so obsessed with the Snackeez Duo. It allows me and my fellow fans to carry drinks around with limited spills, and it also has a hidden container for placing snacks. I love how easy it is to carry everything with this one amazing product.

Get game day started with delicious Pizza Poppers. To make, you'll need crescent rolls, mozzarella cheese, slices of pepperoni, a green pepper, and pizza sauce.

Layer pepperoni on top of cheese and peppers. (If you're vegetarian or don't like pepperoni, you can get creative and use any of your favorite pizza toppings instead.)
