Okay, so I have a confession to make…we host game day parties just for the food and drinks! I know, surprising right? It’s really the best time to indulge in a little comfort food, which is something we don’t do often, but LOVE!

There are really two appetizers that are always a hit when hosting a game day. They’re my all time favorite, very nostalgic and I actually don’t think it can truly be a game day spread without them.

Homemade cheesy and garlic baked artichoke dip and the easiest bacon-wrapped jalapeño poppers ever.

Cheesy Artichoke Dip

This easy artichoke dip recipe is one of the best I’ve had and it’s perfect to dip colorful vegetables, crackers or chips into. Beware though, you might eat the entire dish because it’s that darn good. The poppers are something we’ve made for years.
