EASY CUTE HALLOWEEN FOODS FOR KIDS!

I've been creating cute food for my sons for quite awhile now. The more I do it the easier it gets. The hardest part is coming up with new ideas. Some days, I turn to the Internet to get some inspiration and other days I have an, "A HA!" moment.

• Here are a few creations I've created for the month of Halloween:

MUMMY PIZZA ROLLS AND WITCHES BROOM STICKS!

 

CRESCENT ROLLS, STRING CHEESE AND PEPPERONI

 

Stuff them and roll them. Pull the dough as much as you can to make thinner wraps and create a more, "mummy- like," look. Bake according to directions on package..

I drew on eyes with a edible marker. Another idea is to attached olives.

 

 

 

For the witches broom sticks (inspired by Pinterest! I just added some extras to make them, POP!) I used Pretzel sticks and Reese's butter cups!

 

 

 

 

I melted some chocolate, dipped the sticks and rolled them in Halloween sprinkles while the chocolate was still melted. Set aside on wax paper to dry. Then stick them into the buttercups.

 

 

My son LOVES eating them just like this!!On Friday's I sneak them into this lunch box and he's so excited to thank me after school! =)

• Sandwich- with crust cut off.
• Half of a Cherry Tomato for each eye

PUMPKIN PANCAKES!

 

• Pour pancake batter into a squeeze bottle.
• Draw out the eyes, mouth, and round head on the hot skillet. Let this cook for a few seconds. Time varies, depending on how hot the pan is. 
• Spoon some of the batter to fill the rest of the pancake in.
• Cook pancake as you usually would.
• "BOO!" is written with yogurt.

MUMMY INVASION!!!

 

 

• Sandwich with crust cut off- keep crust to arrange, "mummy wrap."
• Eyes are made out of sliced cheese. I used a medicine measuring cup to cut out the eyes. And tooth picked on ketchup for the pupils.

• These mummies eyes are also cut out from a slice of cheese. I used a plastic bendy straw. (Complimentary of a recent restaurant we visited.) Use the straw like a cookie cutter then squeeze the tip of the straw so the cheese falls out.
• Toothpick on the pupils with ketchup
• String the, "Easy Cheese," on cracker like a mummy wrap.
