It's that time of year again.
If you're planning to serve more than chips and dip at your upcoming tailgate (and we hope you are!), you need to do some planning. That means making as many dishes as possible the day before the game. These should be dishes that need just a quick bit of reheating or dishes that can be served cold or at room temperature.
These recipes, all of which can be made ahead, will get you started. They also transport well if you're traveling to the game. The Barbecue Chicken Sliders are just as good cold as hot. The Avocado Dip is guacamole with a twist or two. And the No-Bake Pretzel bars will help give your party a sweet ending.
