This was a simple yummy lunch. I simply cut Jack-O-Lantern faces into flour tortillas, spread some goat cheese inside and baked at 350 degrees until the tortillas were crispy.
I froze these ghost, but you could also keep the bananas fresh. Chocolate Chips created the eyes and mouth. Alternatively you could melt chocolate, dip the bananas in it and then freeze.
Roasted Pumpkin Seeds are a Halloween staple. Over the years I have mastered this process, just a light coating of olive oil and some salt and pepper and these babies are done in about 20 minutes in a 350 degree oven. Note I stir them around every 5-10 minutes to avoid burning.
These are beyond simple; pretzel sticks and cheese strings. I did have one little one refuse to eat the cheese because she didn't recognize the cheese string she would normally devour, toddlers, geesh!
On the witching theme, these were made with sliced pitas, peanut butter and raisins, so simple.
Another yummy lunch idea is these Mummy Dogs, simply cut the hot dogs into a "person" and wrap in refrigerated biscuit dough. The kids LOVED these.
A healthy snack is these Monster Mouths; peanut butter, apple, chocolate chips and pumpkin seeds. The teeth options for these are endless, this is just what I had on hand.
Finally, the snack I LOVED the most, Mini Candy Apples. For these I followed this tutorial except I coated them in chocolate instead of toffee which I figured would be difficult for toddlers to bite through. In the future I want to give yogurt a try (similar to these), which would need to be frozen and I am not sure how the apples would hold up.
Well these you have it, my week of haunted treats. Have a great night trick-or-treating.
