It’s that time of year again folks! Football season! Oh how I love me some football. And I’ve got the perfect game day food for you.
I first came to love the sport while watching it as a young girl with my father. There was never any doubt in my mind who I would be rooting for on Sunday afternoons. The Dallas Cowboys, of course.
Once the season starts, I will watch every Cowboys game and as many other games as I can. Football is such an exciting sport to watch and I get giddy when the season starts. If only it lasted as long as the NASCAR season I would be one happy girl. One thing that comes with watching games is party food. I do love party food.
This take on Frito Pie uses chili cheese fries instead of chili and incorporates one of my favorite salads – Doritos Taco Salad – and can be eaten straight out of the bag. Perfection.
