    A simple equation is football gameday + friends + great food = perfection! Just like a great football game, it all starts with the best prep. Simple dishes that are quick to assemble like a huddle, easy to execute like a quarterback sneak that ends in a "slider," and can handle the blitz of those wanting a sack of seconds. Football teams have so many squads, players, specialists, and coaches, so it makes sense that your game day layout should as well. Crockpot dishes, dips, and cheesesteaks will bring out the touchdown celebration in your TV room! You may even create a game day dynasty!
