Who’s ready for the big game? You’ve got your team spirit and lucky jersey, but you’re still going to need something to feed everyone. I mean, let’s be real. All of that hollering at the TV can really work up an appetite.
Of course, you don’t want to spend all day in the kitchen fussing with complicated recipes. Game day snacking is at its best when it is no-muss, no-fuss. You have more important things to worry about, like why your team’s wide receiver is lagging or whether or not your QB is still nursing that shoulder strain. Priorities, people… priorities.
While it can be tempting to grab the standard, subpar party food you became accustomed to during your college years, why not up your game? Trader Joe’s has just about everything (and then some) you need to make sure your game day noshing is on point. Whether your team emerges victorious or not, you’ll be a winner when you serve up these tasty snacks.
