BLT GUACAMOLE SLIDERS 

Adding guacamole into the mix takes your BLT game to the next level. These bite-sized sammies are perfect for game day spreads or anytime snacking with your Trailblazer.

What you’ll need:

Slider buns

Cooked bacon 

Crispy lettuce

Guacamole 

 

HOMEMADE CHEESE CRACKERS 

Surprisingly easy to make and completely customizable!  Choose your favorite cheese—or a mix—add nuts or seeds for extra crunch, or sprinkle on your favorite seasoning. Bonus: it’s like edible dough, so it’s fun to work with! Use a fluted pastry wheel to get those classic zigzag edges! Pack them in your lunch box or a Day Tripper just for snacking. 

Ingredients

8 ounces grated cheese

1 ¼ cup all purpose flour

4 Tablespoons cold, unsalted butter, cut into pieces

¼ cup plain yogurt

Directions

1. Combine the cheese, flour, and butter in a food processor. Pulse until it forms crumbs. 

2. Add the yogurt and process for a minute until the dough holds together when pressed.

3. Remove the dough from the processor and shape into a log. Wrap in parchment and chill in the refrigerator for 30 minutes.

4. Preheat the oven to 350°F. 

5. Place a piece of parchment paper on your work surface and sprinkle with flour. Roll the dough out from the center until it is about ¼ - ⅛ inch thick. Roll them thinner for crispier crackers or thicker for a more doughy bite. 

6. Use a pastry wheel to cut into one inch squares. Remove the uneven edges.

7. Transfer the whole sheet of parchment onto a cookie sheet. Spread the crackers so they are not touching each other.

8. Poke a hole into the center of each using a chopstick. Bake for 17-20 minutes until golden. Watch carefully not to over bake! 

*Store in an airtight container for up to 5 days.

BUFFALO CHICKEN POCKETS 

Great for game day, lunchboxes, or a quick dinner, these fun pockets are packed with tender chicken, tangy buffalo sauce, and melty cheese, all wrapped in a golden, flaky crust. They’re the perfect bite for anyone who likes a little spice without all the heat and fit well into any lunch box. 

Ingredients

Tortilla wraps

1 cup shredded chicken 

2 Tablespoons cream cheese

2-3 teaspoons buffalo sauce

Dash of salt

Directions 

1. Combine the shredded chicken, cream cheese, buffalo sauce, and salt.

2. Cut the tortilla in half.

3. Scoop about a tablespoon of the chicken onto the bottom third of one half of the tortilla, leaving some room from the edge.

4. Fold ¼ inch of the round edge in, then fold the filled bottom upward (twice) into a triangle. Tuck the remaining side in to seal.

5. Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat, add a small amount of oil, then place the triangle in the pan and cook for a minute or two per side until golden brown and slightly crisp.

6. Serve with ranch dressing, carrot, and celery sticks.
