Are we still doing Tailgate Thursday posts around here? Yep. {Just 2 more schools to go!}
Am I totally behind every.single.week and just barely manage to crank out a post by the skin of my teeth? Double yep.
I am determined to finish this project. But I am running out of steam. Especially because all I want to do these days is bake Christmas cookies and plan fun holiday meals.
::: End of whiny mini-rant:::
Today's featured team is a big deal around these parts, especially because anyone who knows my undying love for the Gators knows how difficult it is for me to promote our rivals - The Florida State Seminoles.
Last weekend was our annual rivalry game and while my Gators emerged victorious this year, playing the Noles always makes for an intense game! {Did I mention that a large number of my friends are Noles? That definitely ups the rivalry-factor & keeps the pregame trash talking ribbing quite interesting!}
As I was looking back through my tailgate posts, I noticed that I've yet to cover any breakfast tailgate recipes. Sure, beer and wings is a welcome start to the day for any true tailgater, but neither really say "rise & shine" to me.
So today, I'm featuring a make-ahead breakfast tailgate that'll let you get your beauty rest the night before a big game!
1. The MimOsceola, 2. PB&J Breakfast Rolls, 3. Dill & Cheese Beer Bread, 4. The Osceola Dress from Twelve Saturdays |
Any true FSU fan knows that just because it's breakfast time doesn't mean we can't get the cocktail party started. Ease into the day of festivities with these garnet colored MimOsceolas {see what I did there??}... delicious pomegranate mimosas with just a touch of orange juice & triple sec to balance out the tartness. Let's pop the bubbly!
What is more enticing that hot, fresh cinnamon rolls in the morning? Hot, fresh cinnamon rolls that are ready to bake when you roll out of bed! These Peanut Butter & Jelly Breakfast Rolls are a fun twist on a classic. The PB&J is a nod to broke college living, when those sandwiches make up the majority of your meals! 😉 And they even look a little Garnet & Gold, don't they? {Is that a stretch? Oh well.}
Finally, for a little savory treat, this Dill & Cheese Beer bread hits the spot. {And gets in that game day beer requirement.} Of course, this can be baked the day before, too, requiring nothing more than slicing the day of. Made in muffin tins, it's ready for individual servings.
Well, that's all I've got for today. It took everything out of me not to shout "Go Gators!" during the creation of this post...
Oh, what the heck... GO GATORS!!! 😉
{Love you, Seminole friends!}

@Devon - Thank you! You know it wasn't easy on this Gator girl to be staring at garnet & gold, but I did it for my Noles! 😉
@Ashley - Thanks so much! I think they'd be popular eats for an early game, especially among those who would rather not start the day with a Bud Light. 😉
