Your game day party needs a sweet and salty treat! Football Chex Treat is the perfect game viewing snack for the whole family.

Football Chex Treat - Your game day party needs a sweet and salty treat! Football Chex Treat is the perfect game viewing snack for the whole family.

The Super Bowl is just around the corner! We love Super Bowl Sunday and the fun of watching the big game. Let’s be honest, we never have a specific team we’re rooting for. We just love the excitement of the Super Bowl! My husband usually says something like, “It would be nice to see the ______ win.” So this year, I’ll let you know who he fills in that blank in with! haha

We love eating yummy food while we watch the Super Bowl. Recently I made a football themed Chex cereal treat that is so perfect for a football themed anything. I love the colors and how much this treat screams football.

I love a good sweet and salty treat and this one does not disappoint! I also love the different textures in this treat. The pretzels are so yummy with the soft marshmallows and the M&M’s. Yummy! I added neutral football colors so this treat can be used for a football themed anything. It was so easy to pair with all the football decor we have. My boys thought we were having a party when I pulled all of it out so I’m sure they’ll be really excited on Super Bowl Sunday!
