Here are suggestions to help satisfy your afternoon appetite!

Rice cakes and peanut butter
Crunchy, gooey, and sweetly satisfying!

Avocado toast
Sprinkle some red pepper flakes on top. Yum!

Yogurt with granola
Add some fruit to make it even more delicious.

The beautiful game is about to take center stage, and all over the world, countries will be cheering on their team in the quest for soccer’s ultimate prize. 

For everyone watching at home, we’ve got some really fun ideas to make the most of your next soccer watching party. Give these a try!  

Kickoff with some apps

It wouldn’t be match day without some delicious flavors to fuel all the fans in your home. Need some inspiration? Check out some of our favorite game day recipes here. 

Wear your colors proudly

Just because you’re watching at home, doesn’t mean you can’t dress up as if you’re in the stadium. Bust out your full fan-gear, including jerseys, scarves, flags, and maybe even a little bit of face paint to represent your country loud & proud.

Decorate your home

Speaking of representing your country’s colors, why not use your favorite nation’s flag as inspiration for some decorations around the house? Get some streamers, balloons, and any other special touches that will bring your team good luck. 

Make some friendly bets

Just for fun. Have everyone in your family choose a player who they think will score the first goal of the match. The winner gets to decide what’s for dinner the next day! If you plan ahead, you can even have everyone fill out the tournament brackets to guess who’ll escape each round of competition. 

Plan a half-time game

While the players take a break in-between the action, your friends + family can compete in their own little competition. Have a round of soccer trivia, hold your own penalty kick competition in the backyard, or set up a piñata and see who the big winner is! By the time you’re finished, everyone will be amped up for the second half.

Hispanic food culture is all about big, bold, vibrant, and soul-comforting flavors that have been passed down from generation to generation.

It’s practically impossible to pick a favorite, but we’ve rounded up a few of our most beloved staples below:

Baleadas 

A breakfast staple in Honduras, these thick tortillas are stuffed with scrambled eggs, refried beans, and other fixings like queso duro or cotija cheese, and maybe a little dollop of sour cream.
 

Tostadas

These crunchy creations come in all shapes and sizes, using toasted tortillas as a base for all kinds of meat, vegetable, and seafood toppings. For an extra simple twist on this traditional treat, try out our Transporter Tostadas recipe made with Tostitos^®! 

Enchiladas

Grab some tortillas, load them up with your top fillings (beans, veggies, pork, chicken — you name it!) and cover them in a rich, savory sauce before baking to create this family-favorite. We also suggest checking out our one-pan Fritos^® Enchilada Skillet Bake.

Elote

Also known as Mexican Street Corn, elote is one of the most popular street food dishes in Latin America, and for good reason! Char-grilled, then slathered in a creamy sauce and topped with other spices, cheese, and other tasty fixings. If you’re feeling extra spicy, try out these CHEETOS^® FLAMIN' HOT^® Elotes. 

Arepas Rellenas

These Argentinian style arepas are stuffed with all kinds of seasonal ingredients, and are usually a bit thicker than their Colombian counterparts. You can make them from scratch with some dehydrated corn meal, and whatever fillings your hungry heart desires. 

Layered Doritos^® Taco

Okay — you caught us. This one wasn’t exactly passed down from our great grandparents...but we’ll certainly be sharing it with our own kids! Swap out standard taco shells and use a yummy layer of Doritos^® Nacho Cheese Flavored Tortilla Chips as your bold base. Get the full recipe here.

Celebrate fall with the entire family by trying one of these fun activities!

Play in the fall leaves.
Head out into the yard or to the park with the kids and have fun frolicking among the pretty leaves. Don’t forget to snap some photos while you’re at it!

Watch a Halloween movie.
Cuddle up on the couch together, fire up a movie or your favourite online streaming service, and break out the popcorn.

Decorate some pumpkins.
You don't need knives for this fun and easy activity: simply grab paint and glitter and unleash your creativity. Each family member can decorate their own pumpkin, or why not work on a big one as a team?

Because actions speak louder than words!

1. Make them breakfast.
It could be as simple as some toast with peanut butter and a sliced banana or a bowl of oats. Or better yet, you could pull out all the stops and impress your better half with this surprisingly simple Hashbrown Waffle Breakfast Stack.

2. Do an activity of their choice.
When’s the last time you did something just because the other person wanted to?

3. Cuddle before falling asleep.
Put away your phone and actually spend time with your significant other before you both doze off.

This winter, enjoy some family time by bundling up and heading outside!

Build a family of snowmen.
Make it an ongoing project to create a snowman representing each member of your family. Decorate them with spare hats and scarves!

Go sledding!
Get your snowsuits on and head to the nearest park or hill.

Make a snow fort and have a snowball fight.
This is a great activity for parties and family gatherings. Just make sure to lay down some ground rules for safety.

Take the kids skating.
Several parks have free outdoor skating rinks during the winter months. Take advantage of them!

Play soccer/catch/football in the snow.
Some games can be played even when the ground is covered in white. Once you get moving, you won’t stay cold for very long!

Make snow angels.
Join the kids in the fun—just remember to dress in your warmest clothes!
