Here are our picks for your tailgating enjoyment.
We start this week with Puffy Tacos from Plain Chicken.com.
Steph says:
These Puffy Tacos are my new favorite way to eat tacos. They were SO good! We dipped them in some salsa, ranch dip and a combination of the two. These Puffy Tacos taste great right out of the oven or at room temperature. We even reheated the leftovers for lunch the next day. They tasted great every time.

For your sweet tooth we have S’mores Rice Krispy Treats Pinwheels from Mom on Time Out.
Mom says:
Say good-bye to square rice krispies treats and hello to these fun pinwheels! I couldn’t resist making a rice krispies treat for s’mores week. BUT, I wanted to do something fun, something unexpected, and these pinwheels are just that.

Dips are always popular. Check out this Jalapeno Popper Dip from Spend with Pennies.
Holly says:
Jalapeno Popper Dip is my go to party appetizer. Rich cream cheese, spicy diced jalapenos and sharp cheddar are topped with crispy Panko bread crumbs and baked until warm and gooey. The result is the most incredible dip, reminiscent of the appetizer we all love so much!

We haven’t had a mushroom recipe for a while. These Pizza Stuffed Mushrooms from Plain Chicken look great!
Steph says:
This recipe combines two of our favorite foods – pizza and mushrooms! We have made these Pizza Stuffed Mushrooms several times and we can’t get enough of them!! They are great for parties, tailgating and a quick low-carb lunch or dinner. We stuffed the mushrooms with a combination of pepperoni and sausage (our favorite pizza topping combination). Feel free to add green peppers, onions, olives – whatever you like on your pizza!
