One time a year, we can be
creative, festive and allow
everything that scares people to
become part of our lives!
A Halloween meal is a great deal
of fun, everything should be
scary, black or orange; use your
imagination to create your
childrens favorite foods with a
Halloween theme.
Ketchup is a great stand in for
blood, just ask your kids after
they have gone through the local
haunted house!
Pumpkin (often substituted by
butternut squash in cans) both
have lots of beta-carotene, this
helps convert vitamin A, which
assists in maintaining healthy eye
sight.
This is important on Halloween
night when all the ghosts and
goblins are running around in the
dark!
Gummy worms hanging halfway out of
an ice cube can create a fun drink
for your kids at dinner; use
raisins too, make sure the ice
cubes are completely frozen,
adding a touch of red food
coloring before freezing can
create a bloody, wormy ice cube.
You can buy black food coloring
paste at many craft stores, added
to regular foods; this can make
them look frightening without
changing the flavor of the food.
Create a scary but delicious
desert by stirring thawed frozen
strawberries or raspberries into
vanilla yogurt or pudding then
freeze.
The pulp from the berries looks
like clots of blood and the juice
becomes the veins.
Dont forget your good old
standards, cookies and cupcakes,
it is easy to purchase cookies in
a roll now that have pumpkins,
black cats and witches in them,
just bake.
Kids can have a great time
decorating cupcakes, just create
decorations from sugar, or
purchase decorations from the
store to decorate with.
Basic vanilla frosting can be dyed
an color you want with food
coloring, and Halloween candy is
another great source of
decorations.
Even though in most places, it
isnt a good idea to hand out
homemade treats at Halloween, for
family and friends (and dont
forget the traditional Halloween
party at school) they can be a
great deal of fun.
