Stuffed Peppers Halloween Style
This year when making dinner on Halloween prepare these ahead of time.Make your favorite stuffed peppers with pumpkin cut outs. Remember that you cut out very little because as you cook them they will shrink. Don’t throwaway the tops or stems as you top this guy off to make a great presentation. Serve with a side salad with food colored tited ranch dressing. The kids will love it and it will be a good source of healthy energy after trick-or-treating.
Egg Carton Bat
Cut out 3 sections of egg carton a spray paint black. Tie a ribbon through a large bead (or something that will hold the ribbon on the under side of the egg carton) and pull ribbon through hole in middle section of egg carton piece. Glue two googly eyes on the front. Make several of these and use left over ribbon to make the hangers. make sure to spray the underside as well. Let the kids help and remember that Halloween decorations don’t have to look perfect – in fact imperfection actually look better in the end product.It just adds to the creepy feeling to your decorations. Great to let the kids decorate at a party – just spray paint everything before hand and let them use eyes and glitter and beads and other left overs in your craft closet. The would make great name place holders as well – after pulling the ribbon through make a bow. The ribbon can also hold a little bell to bring in the noise.
Green Monster Yogurt Cups With Oreos
Mix 1/2 cup of vanilla yogurt with food coloring (can be any number of colors). In a small plastic cup with sharpie marker draw a monsters face. Put 1/2 cup of tinted in the bottom of cup. Top with crushed Oreos or any type of cookies. This could also be done with ice cream or sorbet and frozen and ready for a snack when your kids are done trick-or-treating while you are going through the candy.
