Game Day Taco Bar

It’s football season, and all bets are off when it comes to creating quick, no fuss, and delicious game day food with Tyson^® products. So, go ahead and invite your friends to the game watch party this weekend because you got this. And we’re going to show you how to put together the best Game Day Taco Bar on this side of the goal post. And with Tyson on your team, there’s no way you’re gonna lose.

Okay, let’s get in a huddle because I’m letting you in on the perfect play when it comes to creating an amazingly delicious and super easy Game Day Taco Bar. First, you gotta start with Tyson Any’tizers^® Popcorn Chicken, Tyson Grilled & Ready^® Fully Cooked Grilled Chicken Breast Strips, and Tyson Refrigerated Chicken Strips. From there, it’s all up to how you want to win one for the hungry Gipper.

Why Tyson? Well, in case you haven’t heard their Grilled Chicken Breast Strips are made from 100% real, simple, all-natural ingredients and Tyson chickens are farm-raised with no antibiotics ever. But that’s not all; there’s no breading which means fewer calories and less fat. And the taste; well once you bite into these Grilled Chicken Tacos, you will understand precisely what I’m talking about.

Same goes for our Crispy Chicken Tacos made with Tyson Any’tizers Popcorn Chicken. We’re talking crave-worthy, loaded with protein white chicken meat. And once you put these yummy chicken ingredients onto a toasted white corn tortilla, pile on the sweet corn guacamole, diced red onions, sliced heirloom tomatoes, spicy jalapeños, then drizzle on the taco sauce, you will be in the taco-eating end zone for the extra point. That’s a whole lot of SHISH BOOM BAH all over your taste buds and then some!

Delicious tacos happen as fast as you can follow the instructions on the package and heat them up. And while you’re heating the Tyson chicken go ahead and prepare the toppings. That means lots of fresh veggies like red onions, shredded cheese, tomatoes, and bring the heat with slices of fresh jalapeño. I also made a Sweet Corn Guacamole as well as a Honey Jalapeño Buffalo Sauce and a Chili Lime Ranch Sauce to drizzle all over these yummy game day tacos. Doesn’t sound good? No flags on this play.
