Can you believe that tailgating season is already here? To kick off the first weekend in September, we rounded up some of our favorite game-day-ready dinners. Whether you're cheering on your team from home or packing up for the parking lot, you can be sure these recipes will go over well at any gathering.
Everyone gets to customize their plate — without dirtying up a bunch of dishes — when foil packet nachos are on the menu. They can be made on the grill or in the oven, and are best served alongside a DIY toppings bar. Or, wrap up pizza night in a neat little package with sausage, pepper and onion calzones. The trick is to use store-bought dough to keep prep minimal when cooking for a crowd. Watching football wouldn't be as fun without a few snacks to go around, so we have loaded Buffalo potatoes and jalapeño popper dip to get the party started. And win or lose, apple cobbler is the perfect fall dessert to end things on a sweet note.

What to cook this week
As Casey Barber says, it’s always a party when nachos are involved. These cheesy chips are loaded up with all the usual suspects: beans, pickled peppers, olives, sour cream, salsa and guacamole.
Riley Wofford took all the best parts of pizza and sandwiches and wrapped them up into these calzones. Let's just say sausage, pepper and onions pair perfectly with tomato sauce and mozzarella cheese.

Twice-Baked Loaded Buffalo Potatoes
Another tailgating food mashup, these twice-baked potatoes taste just like biting into Buffalo chicken wings. Whether you serve them spicy or mild, they're sure to go first from your game-day spread.
Chips and dip are always a staple, but this version takes the classic combo up a notch. Jarred jalapeños get tossed together with cheese and spices, topped with cheddar crackers and baked until bubbly.
Fall is all about the apple desserts, and Alexis deBoschnek’s cobbler is not to be missed. Opt for Granny Smith, Gala or Pink Lady varieties since they tend to hold up best when baked in the oven.
