I love some good football food! This is the perfect choice on football Sunday now that the temps have dropped and we have that sweatshirt chill in the air! I’m always trying to come up with new ways to enjoy buffalo chicken. This creation turned out perfect! The tender baked potato was the perfect boat for the D to the LISH buffalo chicken chili to nestle in and the blue cheese cream topper was the most amazing finishing touch! Add these to your next game day menu and you’ll definitely be adding them to your repeat list.
