Halloween Food Fun 2013

Halloween Food Fun 2013

Themed foods are always my favorite opportunities to take basic recipes and make them more creative or aligned to a theme.  Halloween is the perfect opportunity to do that! 

Menu included: Monster Eyeballs, Mummified Hot Dogs, Frankenstein Toes, Mummy Pizzas, Booger Dip
I love the skeleton hand stealing some food.

Monster Eyeballs

These are easy sausage balls to make, and adding the spanish olives to create the eyes. 


Ingredients

Before Mixing


Sausage Ball Basics


Wrap the hotdogs in crescent rolls and bake  until crescents are cooked. Add eyeballs by squeezing mustard on them after they come out of the oven. 


Frankenstein Toes

 Wrap little smokies in slices of tortillas. Remove part of the smokie to make a slot for the 'toe.'  Bake until warmed through and tortillas crispy.  
Top nails with mustard or ketchup. 





Mummy Pizzas

Using mini bagels (I like the whole wheat ones), add pizza sauce, shredded mozzarella cheese and sliced olives for eyes.  Bake at 350 for about 10-15 minutes until cheese is melted and bottoms are crispy. 


Booger Dip

Take Pimento Cheese dip (I used the spicy white type) and mix green dye until chunky and booger-like. Yum! 

(note: the dip on the left is any creamy dip with blue dye added. This was a honey blue cheese dip.)
