When it comes time for the playoffs, especially the big game I want to make sure I’ve got Man-Friendly food for my all my football buddies to chow down on. And I make sure I’ve got plenty of it!
Now I could stay in the kitchen all day getting ready and making everything from scratch, but seriously were talkin’ football and I have other game day rituals that have to be completed, I can’t be in the kitchen in foo-foo apron all day!
My Game Day Buffalo Chicken Pizza is more of a Recipe Hack than an actual recipe. No cooking skill required! I bought a ready-made pizza crust at the store along with the rest of the ingredients I needed and it all came together in minutes.
After precooking my pizza shell, mozzarella sticks and buffalo chicken I layered in my dish with some diced tomatoes.
Then I added some shredded cheddar, bleu cheese crumbles and Italian parsley. Pop it in the oven for 10 minutes at 400 degrees and its time to eat!
Top it with more buffalo sauce and ranch dressing, cut into squares and enjoy!
I gotta tell you, this pizza was OMG delicious. Serve it with some extra sauce and ranch dressing and make sure to have extra napkins on hand, so the guys don’t have to use their pants.
