When it comes to game day, my favorite way to celebrate is with a delicious snack board with dips. The possibilities are endless: queso, hummus, seven-layer, OH MY!

Today though, we are creating a snack board filled with dips to share on game day. It's large enough to share with the family or a few friends.
For this board I used five of my favorite Harry & David dips:
- Raspberry Honey Mustard
- Spinach Avocado
- Bacon Beer Cheese
- Savory Jalapeño
By following just a few easy steps, you’ll be ready to snack all through the 4th quarter!
Tips for Making a Game Day-Winning Snack Board
Odd Numbers
To make an aesthetically pleasing snack board it's good to work with odd numbers to give it a more dynamic look. Since this board is all about the dips, I chose five flavors. Depending on the size of your snack board, you may want to choose more or less—the dips should fill out the space, but there should still be room between for the other snacks!
Bowls for the Dips
Depending on the look you’re going for, you can use a variety of colored bowls or keep the bowls the same color. I used white bowls because the color highlighted the variety of dips while offsetting the bright colors of the snacks. You can also use bowls in the color of the team you’re rooting for, or use all different colors for extra flair.
Accents
When decorating the board, use ingredients in the dips to help highlight their flavors. For example, you can place spinach leaves and avocados around the spinach avocado dip. This gives the board a more cohesive color scheme, as well as provides complimentary flavors within grabbing distance when you take a scoop.
