Mrs. Fields Secrets

I’ve been doing a lot of scientific research on snack foods with my football-loving friends. We asked ourselves, what is it that makes a great snack table while watching the game? We determined (scientifically, of course) that the best game-watching fare was supported by what I have now named The Seven Pillars of Sunday Football Snacking. The ideal snacking table is represented by each of the seven pillars: Spicy Foods, Cheesy Foods, Sticky Foods, Crunchy Foods, Salty Foods, Sweet Foods, and Dips. When all of these foods come together with your favorite ice cold beverages, it doesn’t matter who wins the game!

Need some inspiration for your snack table? Here are some recipes I’ve gathered for each of the Seven Pillars:

Spicy Foods

Spicy Roasted Chickpeas

Cheesy Foods
