It’s that time of the year!  The big game is just around the corner and if you are planning a party, you must get these trophy-worthy party snacks.  These recipes are as easy as pie, so you’ll have the best experience yet!

1. Tacos – Mexican food is always a good idea!  Tacos are delicious and are very easy to make.  All you need are taco shells, tomatoes, sauce, cheese, jalapeños, onions, chili powder, cilantro leaves, olives (optional), and other ingredients of your choice.  The ingredients can be displayed and guests can serve themselves.  Alternatively you can get some chips with guacamole or salsa.  For drinks, you can make margaritas.  It will be the toast of the town!  Get the recipe here.

2.Sliders – You can get really creative with this one.  In addition to the patties and brioche buns, you’ll need cheese, lettuce, tomatoes, onions, mayo, and ketchup.  If you want to get fancy, make it gourmet with artichokes and replace the patties with fish.  Complement this dish with chili fries.  It’s seriously addictive.  You can find these ingredients at Walmart.  Get the recipe here.
