By the time dinner rolled around, I still wasn’t as hungry as I usually am and decided to make a lighter meal that included grilled teriyaki pork chops, served with a side of squash and onions, sautéed in olive oil.
I followed this meal up with a little baking and snacking, but you’ll have to wait until tomorrow for the recipe debut. It’s a good (and healthy!) one.
Hint: It reminds me a lot of this recipe, but scaled down a bit for one person.
Halloween Food
After dinner I spent entirely too much time browsing Pinterest and looking for fun and delicious Halloween goodies. I figured you guys might get a kick out of some of the amazingly creative creations I stumbled upon as well.
Check ‘em out!
(Note: All sources are linked above the pictures in case you’re interested in making them yourself.)
- Vegetable Skeleton (This reminds me of the veggie turkey my mom and sister made last year!)
And I leave you with this…
My maturity amazes me.

They’ll love to stir everything in and I’ll love digging into it during naptime! It’s a win-win!!

I love halloween!! I’m 18 and still go trick-or-treating 🙂
Lol at the pumpkin but hahahha
Ok, now I’m making myself look REALLY immature!
Every year my family has a pumpkin carving and halloween food party. We all make different awesome Halloween recipes. It’s so much fun.
I went cute and made a little coffin cake, and my dad went yuck and made zombie barf out of refried beans! Yuck!
I prefer the cutsie Halloween food!
Hehe I’m riding the same maturity wagon you are; that scarecrow made me giggle 🙂
And the mummy hot dogs look yummmy!
Such cute ideas I love it!!! I am going to have a baking marathon for all kinds of sweets before thanksgiving this year that are yummy and creative. I want to mix things up because we usually just get a couple of pies from a local orchard. I would love to make some halloween goodies but since I don’t have a family aka hubby and kids to gobble up all my treats, Ill end up eating everything myself which I definitely don’t need…1 candy corn cupcake = indulgence….15 candy corn cupcakes…fat bastard…
I love those mummy hotdogs and candy corn cocktail!
loove all the halloween snack ideas! yum! can’t wait for the recipe debut tomorrow!
Ahaha everything looks awesome! My favorite is the veggie skeleton-so creative!
I have a friend that LOVES Candy Corn and there was a big shortage of Candy Corn related recipes last year. I might have to make her those cupcakes.
The Kidless Kronicles
I love playing with my food and making creative things out of it! My dad might want to recreate that scandalous scarecrow if he sees that picture…hilarious!
HAHA! i’m pretty sure we’re around the same age and I was bent over laughing at you’re last picture!!! Believe me, my maturity (or lack there of) really amazes me too sometimes!! 🙂 With that said, I’m obsessed with the candy corn cupcakes! They are super cute!!!
ooh! i love the veggie skeleton and the mummy hot dogs! so creative!!!
The pretzel bark looks so good, but those cupcakes are scary orange.
those candy corn cupcakes are awesome! and i have a feeling i may need one of those cordials after about an hour of trick-or-treat-ers!
I love homemade candy bark! and I love candy corn, so I’m going to have try to make that one. Can’t wait for the upcoming recipe! 🙂
Pinterest never fails! Now if we weren’t having a heat blast in California and it wasn’t 85 degrees today maybe I be able to fully get into the fall spirit!
Adorable little snacks! and I definitely could go for a candy cane cordial right about now 🙂
people go all out for halloween!!
