With summer on its way out and football season around the corner, it’s time to break out some delicious tailgate certified recipes to bid summer farewell. But on the bright side, we can welcome a new season of pigskin, foam fingers and body paint. Here is a tasty Baja Chicken and Slaw Sliders recipe from Taste of Home’s August/September issue that I absolutely love (You guys know how I feel about coleslaw.)

The sliders have a flavorful spicy sauce and colorful crunchy slaw just finishes up the meal. Bon appetit!
