We had two big wins in our house this weekend. Our team, Utah, beat Michigan and we had a super yummy game day spread including my (and my boys) new favorite treat, fried pickles. I have always been a big pickle fan. OK I’ve always been a HUGE pickle fan! When I was younger my parents used to have to put the pickles on the top shelf of the fridge so I couldn’t reach them and eat the whole jar. So when I was thinking of what tasty snacks I should make for our game day parties, pickles immediately came to mind.

Unfortunately, my husband and boys aren’t as big of pickle fans as I am. In fact they can’t stand them. So what better way to disguise food then to fry it right?! Everything is better fried! To hide what I was doing (mostly from my boys, my husband will try anything I cook) I made a batch of my Wings first so they could munch on those while I was cooking the pickles.
