When the big game is on, the last thing anyone wants is to be stuck in the kitchen missing all the action. That’s why game day food should be easy, hearty, and downright delicious. The kind of spread that keeps everyone cheering, whether for their team or for seconds. With Mrs. Miller’s collection of comforting, homemade-style recipes, you can create a winning game day menu that’s full of flavor, nostalgia, and crowd-pleasing favorites.
This year, skip the complicated dishes and focus on the classics that never fail to score points. We’ve rounded up three MVP recipes from the Mrs. Miller’s kitchen that are perfect for feeding your hungry fans: Crock Pot Chicken Wings, Scotcharoos, and Mrs. Miller’s Salsa & Velveeta with Chips. Each one brings its own personality to your spread, from savory and spicy to rich and sweet, and together they make the ultimate game day lineup.
Kick Off with Crock Pot Chicken Wings
There’s just something about chicken wings and football that go hand in hand. Juicy, flavorful, and finger-licking good, wings are a must-have at any watch party. But instead of spending hours frying or baking batch after batch, let your Crock Pot Chicken Wings do the work for you.
This slow-cooker method delivers tender, fall-off-the-bone wings with minimal effort. Just toss your wings in the crock pot with a flavorful sauce; sweet, spicy, or tangy, depending on your crowd, and let them cook low and slow until kickoff. You can even transfer them to the broiler for a few minutes before serving for that irresistible crispy finish.
These wings pair perfectly with cold drinks and plenty of napkins, and they’ll stay warm and delicious right in the slow cooker throughout the game. Whether your guests love classic buffalo, honey barbecue, or a little garlic-parmesan twist, this easy recipe ensures everyone gets a wing (or five) without missing a single play.
Half-Time Snack: Mrs. Miller’s Salsa & Velveeta with Chips
Every good game day spread needs a centerpiece dip; something warm, melty, and impossible to resist. Look no further than Mrs. Miller’s Salsa and Velveeta with Chips. It’s the perfect blend of creamy and zesty, and it comes together in just minutes.
All you need is a jar (or two) of Mrs. Miller’s Homemade Salsa; choose from Mild or Hot depending on your spice tolerance, and a block of Velveeta cheese. Melt them together for a smooth, cheesy dip that’s bursting with fresh tomato flavor and just the right amount of kick. Serve it with tortilla chips, pretzels, or even fresh veggies for a crowd favorite that will disappear before halftime.
Pro tip: Keep your dip warm in a small crock pot so guests can graze all game long. You can also add a scoop of browned sausage or diced jalapeños for a heartier version that’ll keep everyone coming back for more.
Sweet Victory: Classic Scotcharoos
No game day feast is complete without something sweet to balance out the savory. Enter Scotcharoos, the ultimate no-bake dessert that’s crunchy, chewy, and irresistibly peanut buttery.
Made with crispy rice cereal, our Peanut Butter Marshmallow Spread, a corn syrup base, and a rich layer of melted chocolate and butterscotch chips on top, these bars are a nostalgic favorite that both kids and adults love. They’re quick to make, easy to transport, and perfect for cutting into bite-sized squares for your snack table.
Scotcharoos are a win-win: they satisfy your sweet tooth and hold up beautifully throughout the game; no forks, plates, or refrigeration needed. Just grab one between plays (or during a commercial break) for a burst of chocolatey, peanut buttery goodness.
