Everyone knows there is a direct correlation between food and popularity in college.

This stuffed bread is a game day staple created by my mother while she was in college in Albany, New York. Her dorm room was the go-to on game day because of this wonderful bread creation. To this day, 25 years later, this culinary confection remains the prime snack in our house on many football Sundays.

Give this recipe a try and you will notice your game day parties becoming more and more popular.

    Layer the cheese and salami. You could get creative here, but for all intents and purposes, I do a salami-provolone-salami arrangement.

    Fold the edges in to keep all of the meaty goodness from slipping out.

    Make diagonal slices in the bread without cutting all the way through.

    #SpoonTip: This will ensure that the dough does not rise and subsequently explode in your oven. This could lead to tragic consequences, such as your building’s fire alarm going off and everyone hating you.
