Instructions
- Start by cooking chicken strips if you’re using raw ones. Once cooked, place them in the center of each tortilla. Cut strips of dough or use cheese slices and wrap them around the chicken to create mummy-like shapes. Bake at 375°F (190°C) until golden brown (about 15-20 minutes).
- Spread cream cheese or hummus on whole wheat bread. Cut the bread into spooky shapes using cookie cutters. Use olives for eyes and strips of vegetables to create monster hair.
- Take mini pumpkins or oranges and use a food-safe marker to draw silly faces on them. Serve these as fun fruit options.
- Arrange broccoli florets, carrot sticks, and any other colorful vegetables on a platter. Top with olives and use food picks to create “spooky trees.”
- Use gummy candies and edible eyes to design creepy characters on your snacks. Let kids help decorate!
