Morning Football Games

Did you know that I’m a big college football fan? In fact, our whole family is and that means college football is usually at least part of every weekend throughout the entire fall. Specifically, we’re HUGE Nebraska Cornhusker fans! And while morning kick-offs are not always super common during football season (or at least early mornings anyway), we sometimes have 11:00am kick-offs. With the time difference, that’s only 9:00am here. And for stadium tailgaters who show up hours before the game, even an 11:00am kick-off definitely means breakfast tailgating! So breakfast-time tailgates definitely call for some delicious breakfast food!


Breakfast Football Food

Sure, you could just whip up a large batch of scrambled eggs and bacon, or make a big batch of overnight oatmeal to feed a crowd. But I think it’s always fun to have some more unique ideas and/or fun themed food that just screams “football breakfast” – things like maple & bacon combos, fun finger foods, football-shaped food, etc! So, if you’re in need of breakfast ideas for game day, you’re sure to score a touchdown with any of these 15+ breakfast football food recipes! There’s heartier fare (like breakfast sliders and burritos), some great food-on-a-stick (like team spirit fruit kabobs and tater tot skewers), and even a couple sweet options. I mean, how cute are those little cinnamon roll footballs?!
