Spend the Season Enjoying These Delicious Fall Snacks and Sling TV
As the days get shorter and the nights get colder, we’re all left with fewer reasons to go out and even more reasons to stay in. Everyone knows getting cozy on the couch in preparation of a movie marathon is only as exciting as the snacks you have on hand. That’s why we partnered with Sling TV to bring you brand-new snack recipes we’re sure you’ll fall for.
Popcorn is a staple in almost every household. We upgraded this movie-time favorite by incorporating all the fun flavors of a Cinnamon Bun onto each and every kernel. Beware! This buttery, salty-sweet treat is highly addictive. If you want to munch on a healthier snack that still packs a punch, try making a batch of our Sweet-and-Spicy Pumpkin Seeds. Roast the seeds with our special blend of sugar, spice and a few other key ingredients for a crunchy delight you’ll be eating by the handful.
While you stream live shows and other on-demand entertainment with Sling TV, you’re going to get hungry. Imagine the smell of baked goodies coming from the kitchen as you watch your favorite movie. Our Pumpkin Pie Cookie Bars combine two of the greatest desserts of all time. These are decadent and delicious, so we know they will be a new fall favorite for all of your friends and family.
Hunker down and let the binge watching begin. Television is better with So Yummy snacks and Sling TV!
