Ten minutes until kick-off. The crew\u2019s at the door. Wait, did you forget the snacks? Don\u2019t worry, we\u2019ve got you covered.<\/p>\n

Snacks for game-day don\u2019t have to be a photo-worthy affair. Sure, those mini sliders with your team\u2019s flag hanging off the toothpick are cute, but they also take forever to make. And, when you\u2019re short on time, you just want to feed the hungry crowd.<\/p>\n

We get it. That\u2019s why we\u2019ve compiled a list of seven snacks you can throw together in under ten minutes. Yep, you read that right, under ten minutes to snack time for you and the whole gridiron gang.<\/p>\n

Guacamole<\/h2>\n

This one\u2019s a classic choice for a good reason: It\u2019s easy. Really, though, this one\u2019s dependent on whether or not you can source several ripe avocados. If you can, then it\u2019s a no brainer<\/p>\n

Simply scoop out the avocado\u2019s insides and mash them up with a little salt, lime juice, and cilantro. Additional ingredients are up to you; you could add onion, tomato, cumin, and even sour cream. Throw it on the table with a bag of chips. Done.<\/p>\n

Pico de Gallo<\/h2>\n

Pico de gallo\u2014aka salsa fresca<\/a>\u2014is one of our favorite game-day snacks. It\u2019s easy to make, and once you\u2019ve had it freshly prepared, there\u2019s no going back to the jar. Simply seed and dice a few tomatoes.<\/p>\n

Throw them in a fine-mesh strainer basket and season with a few pinches of salt. Put the basket in the sink and let the tomato juices drain while you dice up a white onion, a jalape\u00f1o, and a fistful of cilantro. Then, mix everything together and serve with tortilla chips.<\/p>\n

Charcuterie Platter<\/h2>\n

All right, if the last two were too tough for you, well, three\u2019s a charm. Every game-day glutton we\u2019ve ever met loves a good charcuterie board, even if they can\u2019t pronounce charcuterie. In case we\u2019ve lost you, too, charcuterie (shar-koo-tuh-ree) is a fancy way of referring to a meat and cheese platter.<\/p>\n

This can be a wildly creative endeavor, or it can be super simple. Our favorite way to make it happen quickly is to use simple cold cuts, such as salami or prosciutto (although really any lunch meat will do). Lay the sliced meats alongside crackers and sliced cheese. Use bunches of grapes or olives to fill in any empty space. Fancier options might include a spreadable cheese\u2014perhaps goat cheese. Or, for a less gamey bite, maybe cream cheese topped with a jar of salsa and served with salty pretzels is a better move.<\/p>\n

Ranch Dip<\/h2>\n

We\u2019re not talking about the packet of seasoning you might have in the back of a spice cabinet somewhere. We\u2019re talking homemade, impress-your-friends, ranch dip. Promise, it still takes less than 10 minutes, and you won\u2019t dirty more than two spoons and a bowl. All you need is Greek yogurt (or sour cream) and the following dried spices:<\/p>\n
