So, there is a NEW snack at Walmart and just in time for enjoying a healthy snack option while watching the March basketball games. Have you seen it yet? RITZ Crisp & Thins! It’s like a chip but so much better. They are available in four flavors and are healthy and deliciously crispy! You can even earn $.50 cash back by using the free Ibotta app with special offer.
I found little baskets that looked like nets and put each flavor in a basket with a printable goal to let our guests know which flavors to choose from; Bacon, Sea Salt, Cream Cheese, or Salt & Vinegar. I also added a sign that says “No Goal Tending” because we have plenty to share.
I also served a variety of ready made dips in small paper bowls that I wrapped with scrapbook paper that is textured like a basketball. I added fresh toppings to each dip to compliment the flavors.
Another fun idea is to serve orange soda in mason jars with black vinyl lines curved to look like basketballs. If you don’t have black vinyl, you an also use a permanent black marker to draw your lines. Just make sure your jars are nice and dry before writing on them.
Keeping your snacks simple means less time planning and more time enjoying the games with fun food & friends! Don’t forget your special offer using the free Ibotta app. And rest assured that even if your bracket is busted, your #SnackBracket will remain on point!
So how are you going to enjoy the madness this month? Leave me a comment with your game watching ideas. Here’s to your brackets staying intact this season!

Do you remember where you got those white baskets for the chips?!
Amy Croushorn says
Hi Britney! I got them at The Dollar Tree. They were in the back of the store and had handles on them which I took off. Hope that helps! Amy

Hi,
Absolutely, love the basketball theme. For the free downloadable files, can they be edited? I need different wording.

Do you some that you can edit to change the names of chips?

where do i fond the recipes for the dips?
Amy says
Hi Nicole! I actually used dips that I found at my local Trader Joe’s and then added the fresh toppings to them. But if you want to make some from scratch, I’m sure you could search pinterest and find some great recipes!
