Sriracha Hummus
We love Sriracha, we love hummus. Put them together and you have a match made in heaven that is great for carrot sticks or pita chips. The best part of this recipe is that you don’t have to cook a thing to make it. Throw everything in your food processor, puree, and you are set. You could even make it on the fly during halftime.

Chipotle Pulled Pork Dip
Slow cooked chipotle pork can be made the day before. On Sunday, bake the tender meat with cheese and chilies to get things all warm and melty.
