Tailgating season is in full swing, and there's no better time than now to start thinking about some new recipes that will make your next game day party a success.

While you can never go wrong with chips and dip, it's always a good idea to have some heartier options on the menu like mini sliders. Our friends over at United Supermarkets and Happy + Nourished recommend making your own patties for these bite-size burgers using a combination of chicken, Italian seasoning, garlic, pepper, and a pinch of salt.

Simply heat a grill pan over medium heat and flatten the burger to about ½ inch thickness. Once they're cooked through, you can top them off with lettuce (Happy + Nourished says to use Pete's Benevolent Lettuce mix as it is cut just right for sliders), Roma tomatoes, avocado, bacon, or any other condiments of your choice.

If you're looking for something that you can just grab, heat, and eat, United Supermarkets has you covered with their ReadyMeals, which are prepared in the store using only the freshest ingredients available. We bet that the brisket enchiladas with jalapeno cream sauce will be a hit with your fellow tailgaters.
