Creepy Smiles & Carrot Fingers
My husband had to work through dinner on Monday so I decided to make a fun and festive Halloween meal for my kids. First up, were these fun and silly creepy smiles & carrot fingers that I served with Hot Dog Mummies and Dracula’s Dentures for dessert. My kids devoured everything and I never once had to remind them to eat their veggies. You can’t beat that!
Creepy Smiles & Carrot Fingers
Creepy Smiles:
- 4 snow pea pods slit through the center
- 2 baby bell peppers seeded & sliced into tongue shapes
- Almond slivers
Carrot Fingers:
- 4 carrots peeled & cut to finger length
- Laughing cow cheese wedge
- Almond slices
How to Make Creepy Smiles & Carrot Fingers
Cut a slice down the center of the pea pods lengthwise through both sides of the pod. Place a piece of baby bell pepper into the center of the slice. Add a few almond slivers inside for the fangs.
Peel the carrots and cut them into finger-length pieces. Place a bit of the cheese on the back of the almond slice then place it on the tip of the carrot to look like a fingernail. Place on a plate and serve. Enjoy.
