Creating a Game Day Dip Station

Hello, friends!

Who loves football? THIS GAL! Actually, I’m really going to try my best to get into it more this year – my husband, boys, and father-in-law all like watching the games together and I’d love to put more of an effort into sharing those special moments. My idea of watching football is making snacks, eating said snacks, and then going off to do something by myself for a few hours while the boys watch the game. But this year I’m all in!

My husband and I love creating recipes to share, and today we’re teaming up to share a full-on Game Day Dip Station for you to enjoy this year on game day! Some of our favorite things to snack on for Game Day are pretzels and chicken, so we chose 2 pretzel varieties, 2 chicken varieties, and created a dip for each!

We love Tyson® products and pick them up in the frozen aisle at Meijer. The Tyson Crispy Chicken Strips are 100% all natural (minimally processed and no artificial ingredients added), no antibiotics ever, chicken grown on American farms. Tyson Any’tizers Snacks are protein-packed and have the most crave-worthy flavor. I love preparing these because overall it allows me to spend less time in the kitchen and more time with the boys during game time. And the perfect complement to the table, Snyder’s of Hanover® products, together they make the perfect game time meal.

We love Snyder’s of Hanover because they’ve been America’s pretzel bakery since 1909! They’ve got a hearty crunch, robust flavor, and I love that they are so versatile when it comes to pairing with dips. We tried them in all of the dips we’re about to share and they were delicious in each one!

Tips for Setting Your Game Day Table

Keep stress levels down by making a “simplicity is key” rule. You want to have fun while creating your game day spread, so don’t focus on perfection. It’s okay if your dishes don’t all match, they’re more colorful that way! Just find a nice serving area, put out your dips and dip pairings, some paper plates, and throw in a little fun by adding party elements. I love to add in party blowers, pom poms, and cute decor to make the table festive. When I’m done, I simply put the decorations in a storage bin for the next game day! It makes it more whimsical and fun when you’ve got the stage set for entertaining, right?
