Halloween Food Part 2

I think a brain is required for spooky Halloween food! This does take a little time and patience but it is easier than you think! I bought the small watermelons they come two in a pack this time of year at sams. I lightly peeled just taking the dark green off. Once I had it peeled I stared making deeper incisions I did the line down the middle first and then just creatively added maze like shapes on each side. 
Tombstone graveyard. Use your favorite dip recipe. For trees, tombstones, cats simply cut the shapes out of different tortillas and bake in the oven. Do not insert into your dip until right before serving otherwise they get soggy and you get a droopy halloween graveyard.
Mummy pizzas just great for a quick lunch or snack for the kids. I used the bagel bites and added a little more mozerella cheese with black olive eyes.
I think of these as an oldie but goodie. They have been around for ever but I still love them, pudding, oeros, milano cookies and pumpkin candies...easy breezy creepy dessert.

I found printable labels here to dress up soda or juice a fun eye catching addition.

Adding fun to your Halloween with food! PART 1

I adore these deviled eggs. Super creepy looking and so easy! Make your deviled eggs as you normally wood. Then take a can of black olive rinse your olives cut in half, place the half in the middle of your egg. Then cut the remaining half black olives into spider legs.
 Healthy Halloween Snack cut your bananas in half (do the bananas right before serving so they dont turn brown) mini choc chip eyes and reg choc chip inserted pointy side in and walla ghosts! My kids love those little cutie oranges. To make them more festive simply peel them and place them on a tray using a small celery stalk or green candy for the stem.
This cake looks impressive but it is really easy! Simply bake your rectangle cake and icing green. You are going to use rolos for Franks neck, half oreos topped with a hershey kiss for eyes and then just add details with your black icing.

Hot dog mummies! Wrap your hot dog with some yummy breadsticks from a can, bake in the oven till golden, let cool before adding mustard eyes.

Lots and Lots of Treats!

We finally closed the door and turned off the porch lights. We took the kids to a few houses in the neighborhood then took the kids to the Halleluijah night that the local churches put on at the school it is so neat it is all free the kids got the neatest lunch boxes with a little prayer on them all the kids got those and then both got a bag full of goodies all the games pop and popcorn are free so they had a blast. There are now two huge bowls of candy and snacks on my table and lots of little junkie toys around! Came home and passed out candy. While we were gone I had left a bowl on the porch with a sign saying take some and when we came home it was almost empty so then we started handing out I ended up using chips from the kids lunches too..lol.

Last year Braden was 4 and Brittney 6 and she was a cute little care bear and Braden was a skunk that was just adorable well no more cutesy costumes for my too. Brittney had purple and blue hair and makeup and an outfit that made her daddy think too much about what we will be dealing with in the years to come...haha..and Braden has been punching people all night!
Now its time to get my Punk Rocker and Power Ranger ready for bed.
