We take game days quite seriously in out house. With the playoffs happening now & the Super Bowl game coming up I am in full party food mode around here. You would think it all dies down once the season ends. Well, not exactly. We are also HUGE NASCAR fans. We make a huge homegating spread here & watch the races on the big screen with the surround sound going. The food is a huge part of making the experience great – starting with these Soft Pretzel Bites.
