Halloween parties are a great excuse to be creative and make some scary but tasty treats. There will be plenty of candy floating around; so you can balance things a bit with some healthy snacks.
Kids young and old get a kick out of eating Eyeballs. Slice some cherry tomatoes, followed by a dollop of cream cheese and top with a sliced black olive for a delicious one-eyed snack!
How about making Brain Dip?
Mix:
3 cups low-fat yogurt
1 cup mayonnaise
1/2 cup peach jam
1 tbsp. orange juice
1/2 tsp. to 1 tbsp. mild curry powder
1/2 tsp. white pepper
Serve with raw vegetables or crackers.
Of course, you’ll need some Bug Juice to wash down your ghoulish munchies.
Mix:
2 10-oz. pkg. frozen strawberries, defrosted
1 6-oz. can lemonade concentrate, thawed
1-quart ginger ale
2 cups raisins
6 gummy worms
1. Mix the strawberries and lemonade concentrate in a blender until smooth and thick.
2. Gradually add ginger ale.
3. Transfer the beverage to a punch bowl. Stir in any remaining ginger ale and the raisins. Place the gummy worms on the rim of the bowl for a swampy effect. Makes 10 creepy servings.
Some may like the gummy worms, but how many will ask for more Worms on a Bun?
You’ll need Hotdogs, Hamburger buns and some Ketchup.
Cut the hot dogs into thin slices and score the edges (about three cuts per slice). Boil or microwave until the slices curl like wiggly worms. Serve three or four worms to a bun. For an extra-icky touch, add a few squiggles of ketchup. Ewwww!
If that’s not gory enough for you then make some Creepy Witches’ Fingers. This recipe for these creepy cookies makes approximately 60 fingers!
1 cup softened butter
1 cup sugar
1 egg
1 tsp Almond extract
1 tsp Vanilla
2 2/3 cups wheat flour
1 tsp baking powder
1 tsp salt
3/4 cup almonds, whole blanched
1 Tube red decorator gel
Cream together butter, sugar, egg, almond extract and vanilla. Mix in sifted flour, baking soda, and salt. Cover and refrigerate 30 minutes. Working with one-quarter of the dough at a time and keeping remainder refrigerated, roll heaping teaspoonful of dough into finger shape for each cookie. Press almond firmly into 1 end for nail. Squeeze in the center of the finger to create knuckle shape; you can also puff it out rather than squeezing it in for the knuckle effect. Using paring knife, make slashes in several places to form knuckle. Use your own hand as a guide.
Place on lightly greased baking sheets; bake in 325* oven for 20-25 minutes or until pale golden. Let cool for 3 minutes. Lift up almond; squeeze red decorator gel onto nail bed and press almond back in place, so gel oozes out from underneath. You can also make slashes in the finger and fill them with “blood.” Now that’s gross!
For kids Halloween Parties it seems the more disgusting the better! Use your imagination and have fun with these kids Halloween recipes.
