This isn’t any Football Friday; this is Iron Bowl Football Friday! This is the biggest game of the year!  It is the best and most hard-fought rivalry game in the country!  This year is about more than bragging rights as there are national championship implications again.  No matter what, it is always an exciting game.

These little muffins are very similar to the Sausage Cheese Puffs I posted a few weeks ago.  The only difference is these muffins have a secret ingredient – Fiesta Nacho Cheese soup.  These were a hit at the tailgate.  I took the whole batch and only had a few leftovers; they reheated well for breakfast the next morning.

  1. These look awesome! Found this on Pinterest and had to check them out. I can't wait to try these this weekend – thanks!

    1. Jennaj – I don't refrigerate them, but it won't hurt them if you do. They should taste great reheated in the morning

  2. omg i just found this recipe through iowa girl eats. this is amazing!! I was looking for the perfect breakfast tailgate food for a football game this weekend–found it!!

  3. I found this recipe through Pinterest and made them this morning. Soooo good! 🙂 I got 80 mini muffins out of the recipe, and I followed it exactly, exept I needed a splash more milk to moisten it all. I'll be making these a lot this fall/winter!

    1. Ashley – you could do that or even make the muffins the night before and just reheat them in the morning.

  4. Ok I swear I read that 10 times and just now saw where is says milk will work too! I saw the water part lol

  5. Hi Steph;

    Sounds like a great recipe. Can you tell me how many muffins are made with these ingredients? Thank you!

  6. You do need the soup in this recipe. I have a sausage and cheese puff recipe that doesn't require the soup – they are great too

  7. Can you make these without the soup or will the consistency not be the same? I have everything except the soup.

  8. How many muffins does one batch of these make? I am needing to send some for a group of about 10 boys and need to plan ahead.

    Also, the 7-up biscuits were a big hit at my house and have become a go-to staple! Thanks!!
