We are in the midst of the fall football season, and if you are like many other football fans, youare hosting those delicious tailgating parties. The high-carb recipes and high-sugar ones are not suitable for people on a keto-style or a low-carb diet, though. So, this week, if you are planning on throwing or attending a tailgate soon, check out our favorite keto-style appetizer recipes that work nicely for anyone, especially those on a keto-style diet.

These Mexican Mini breakfast muffins are great on those morning tailgates. You can carry the guacamole in a gallon zipper baggy and then cut the corner of the bag to pipe it on top of each cooked mini muffin. I find leaving them out covered with aluminum foil after you cook them will allow them to get to room temperature and make them easy to eat. But be sure the guacamole is refrigerated before adding them to the top.
The next recipe is easy to put together. They are small, so they don't take a lot of time to cook. Great for a tailgate party. You can prepare/cook the peppers and the meat mixture and then fill them at the tailgate event and melt the cheese on top. Eazy Peezy.
Dips
This guacamole recipe is my favorite. It's one that I make all the time! When you make it at home, cover it with plastic wrap - pressing the plastic wrap onto the top of the guacamole so the guac doesn't have any air exposed to the top. Then cover it with a tight lid. This technique keeps the guac from getting brown on top. Cut up some celery and add it to the side. You can make it the night before the tailgate, and if you cover it the way I described above, it will be fresh and green for your guests.
This easy-to-make dip is perfect for nachos and can be made ahead of time. Roasted red peppers and tomatillos can be prepared in a toaster oven or on a grill.
Buffalo Dip and Wings
As we do, if you like buffalo chicken, this is a must-have at your next tailgate party. The buffalo chicken dip can be made the night before and then reheated or left at room temperature to serve with celery. The thinner the layer of the dip in the glass platter (affiliate) (we used a glass pie plate), the faster it heats up for your guests.
And last but not least, I love my baked buffalo wings recipe. We purchase the wings already cut, so we don't have to do much preparation. Grilling (affiliate) them makes it easy the night before or that morning before you leave for the game. You can even cook them at the tailgate if you arrive early enough before your guests arrive. If not, baking them and tossing them with the sauce after they are cooked in a disposable aluminum tray, then covering them and leaving them at room temperature, makes it extremely easy to serve when you arrive at the tailgate. Feel free to use butter as a substitute for the alternative dairy-free option for those following the Keto diet, since you can choose to eat dairy if you prefer.
Low Carb Chips
Another Tailgate Appetizer Recipe, Keto Style, is easy and can be baked in the air fryer (affiliate). Place the pepperoni slices on the air fryer (affiliate) tray and heat them using the air fryer (affiliate) setting. Please follow the instructions and tips in the post.
