Saturday is a special day in our house - Game Day! We proudly wear our green and yellow to support our favorite college team, the Oregon Ducks. So far this season we are undefeated. A three generation Duck family, both my husband and I attended and we have passed our love of the game and team to our children.

All that cheering works up quite the appetite. I like to enjoy my Saturday spending time with family rather than slaving away in the kitchen. So I am always looking for fast meal ideas that will please my hungry crowd. Game day food must be finger-friendly, fun and appeal to everyone.

Have you noticed the new Tyson Cheesy Chicken Nuggets and Spicy Chicken Nuggets? I found them at my local Walmart in the freezer section.

Gourmet nuggets? Yes, please.

Now, chicken nuggets are a fun food on their own, but to get them dressed up for game day I created two slider recipes using the new chicken nugget flavors and Hawaiian mini rolls.

This would also make a fun serve-yourself set-up, but they were easy to make up ahead of time. I loved the peppery flavor of the Tyson Spicy Chicken Nuggets and paired it with my favorite garlic pepper cheddar and homemade bread and butter pickles.

Crispy chicken and sweet pickles just make me happy.

I kept things simple because the nuggets are already packed with flavor.

My Spicy Pepper Pickle Slider

• Tyson's Spicy Chicken Nuggets
• Mini Hawaiian Rolls
• mayonnaise
• Garlic and peppercorn cheddar cheese
• bread and butter pickles

Just pile them up and use a skewer or toothpick to hold them together.

I also broke out the BBQ sauce and pineapple rings to compliment the new Cheesy Chicken Nuggets. My kids love sweet and tangy BBQ sauce.

My Cheesy Pineapple BBQ Slider

• Tyson's Cheesy Chicken Nuggets
• Mini Hawaiian Rolls
• mayonnaise
• Honey mesquite BBQ sauce
• pineapple rings

Build your creation and watch them disappear quickly. Our BBQ sauce got a little messy, so be sure to have napkins handy.

If you have Chuck E Cheese fans in the house, don't miss out on the token coupon on the back of Tyson Cheesy Chicken Nugget bags. You can get 130 tokens for $25 (a savings of $7.50) when you bring in your clipped coupon. We just got back from a Chuck E. Cheese birthday party and I know that coupon would have come in handy for more game fun!

I enjoyed the new nuggets, but would you like to try before you buy? There will be product demo for the Tyson Cheesy Chicken Nuggets in Walmart the week of November 15th. Check them out and see how tasty the new flavors really are.

Game On! Family Night with #DipDipHooray

Rushing here, rushing there, some nights it is nice to put aside time to just spend as a family. Time to talk, time to laugh, and time to enjoy each other's company. Since my children were born I knew that family game night was an important tradition I wanted to start in my family. I watch for sales and pick up games when the opportunity arises. I love the classics from my own childhood, Hi Ho Cherry-o, Candy Land, Hungry Hungry Hippos.

When I told my kids I was planning a Hasbro Game Night they were excited. Especially when I mentioned they could help pick out a new game.

After walking through the game aisle we found many games we want to try, but finally agreed on Connect 4. Did you ever play this as a child? My son loves playing tic-tac-toe so he understood the concept and was really looking forward to playing with us.

You can see my entire shopping trip in my Google+ album. I was able to find everything we needed for our Hasbro Family Game Night at Walmart; the food, condiments and games were all there.

On game night, the last thing I want to do is spend all of my time in the kitchen. Meals that can go together in less than 30 minutes and please my picky eaters are a bonus.

For this #DipDipHooray party we stuck with the classics, french fries, chicken nuggets and ketchup. Of course, I love to switch things up and am always looking for a way to incorporate a little zing.

Asked to come up with a 5-ingredient meal using Tyson Chicken Nuggets, Ore-Ida French Fries and Heinz Ketchup, well I bring you my favorite Hot and Tangy Goop. Good for dipping either your nuggets or fries. Though, you might notice it is actually 6 ingredients... depending on who you ask they might encourage you to leave out the Sriracha hot sauce, or pickle juice, but I say leave them be! Sorry, I just couldn't leave out either one. The hot and tangy is what makes my mouth happy and adds a bit of kick to my favorite dipping choices.

Andrea's Hot and Tangy Goop 

You Will Need:

• 1/4 c. Heinz Ketchup
• 1 tsp. pickle juice, I used my bread and butter pickles
• 2 Tbsp. Mayo
• 1 tsp. Sriracha hot sauce, or to taste
• Tyson Chicken Nuggets or Ore-Ida French Fries for dipping

Mix all ingredients together until well blended. Dip liberally and often. In fact, get your own little dish so you can do some double dipping!

Enjoy.

 My kids insist on keeping the classics pure. They like their nuggets and fries with just plain ole' ketchup. Lots and lots of ketchup!

Both my kids really had fun with Connect 4. Even my 3 year old understood about trying to get 4 in a row. This was a game my kids could even play together. Shocking? Well, they were so excited to play they even took turns.

With young children family game night means changing the games often enough to hold their interest. After Connect 4 we switched to their Toy Story Memory Game. My daughter gets so excited to play she often can't wait for her next turn. I love how intent both my kids get to remember where their favorite characters are.

And our family favorite, by far, is Hungry Hungry Hippos! The kids can't get enough of seeing who's hippo can get more marbles.

What are family's favorite games and game night food?
