Halloween Dinner Board

Take your regular dinner up a notch with this Halloween dinner board. I love this time of year because there are so many fun holidays to celebrate and there’s nothing better than seeing the excitement in my kids eyes. I’ve included a mix of healthy items and some treats which keeps both mama and the kids happy.

Here are instructions for each item on the board:

Clementine Pumpkins

Peel your clementines and use anything green you have on hand to make the stem. I used broccoli stalks and trimmed them to fit.

Brownie Spider

Use a small glass or a round cookie cutter to cut homemade brownies or store bought brownies in circles. Break pretzel twists apart gently or use a knife to cut and separate the curved parts off. Insert these into the brownie as the legs. Use a little chocolate icing or melted chocolate as glue to attach candy eyes onto the spiders.

Mummy Hot Dogs

Preheat oven to 375. Grease a baking sheet and set aside. Cut the crescent sheet into 1/4 inch strips. Wrap each hot dog with the strips making sure overlap some areas and leaving gaps in others. Do this from the top of the hot dog to the bottom. Place each hot dog on the sheet pan and bake for 12-15 minutes. Once they have cooled, use a little bit of ketchup or mustard to attach candy eyes to your hot dog mummys.

“Boo” Crescent Rolls

Use any left over crescent dough strips and shape them into letters to spell anything you like - I did the word “boo”. Bake with your Mummy Hot Dogs. These will probably only take about 10 minutes at 375.

Bell Pepper Masks

Cut a bell pepper into 2 inch sections - any color will work. Use a small knife to cut out eyes and a mouth.

Marshmallow Ghosts

Melt some chocolate in the microwave and dot eyes and a mouth onto marshmallows.

Extras

Candy Corn

Pumpkin Candy

Fruit - I used blackberries in a bowl and sprinkled some candy eyes on top.
