Good Thursday!
Here’s a little blast from the past for you today. I LOVE these Halloween recipes that I did last year. I am actually doing a couple of them in my little guys preschool class tomorrow morning that should be fun!
Halloween is going to be here before we know it! Both my boys decided they want to be skeletons, phew that’s easy. I am trying to find a couples costume for my husband and I this year. I just can’t make my mind up! I saw a bacon and eggs costume that is just adorable! I might have to order it today. Catch ya’ll later, happy halloween baking!
Breadstick Mummy Dogs
Ingredients
- 1 roll/pkg Pillsbury Breadstick Dough 12 count
- 12 hot dogs
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 375 degrees F. Unroll all 12 breadsticks from package. Cut each into 3 equal strips. Take 3 strips, one at a time and wrap around 1 hot dog starting from the top of the hot dog. (Each hot dog has 3 thin breadstick strips around it). Leave a small space towards the top of the hotdog to make mustard eyes. Continue wrapping all dogs then place on a lightly greased baking sheet. Bake for 10-15 minutes or until lightly golden brown.
- Remove and let cool for 5 minutes. Use mustard or ketchup for the eyes.
Bug-apillar Banana Dude
Ingredients
- 1 Ripe banana
- Creamy peanut butter
- Pretzel sticks

Instructions
- Cut banana into 1 inch slices. Spread a thin layer of peanut butter on each slice (minus the last piece) then press gently back together, curving slightly if desired. Break pretzel sticks in half, then press into sides of banana for legs. Dip 2 raisins in peanut butter and stick on front banana slice for eyes, then dip red fruit snack in peanut butter and stick on bottom of banana slice for the tongue.
Ooozing Monster Apple Mouths
Ingredients
- 1 Large apple of choice
- Peanut butter

Have a great weekend! See you all soon!
Thank you for sharing this good idea. I’ve made these several times now and my fella smiles every time I put them on the table. I’ve featured your project in my “Halloween Meals” blog post so that others can stop by and enjoy your creativity too.
Cute! I blog over at http://www.2crafty4myskirt.blogspot.com/ and this Thursday I will be doing a round up of Halloween treats and party ideas. I plan to include your Mummy Dogs. Please let me know if you are not ok with that:)
Helpful info. Lucky me I discovered your website accidentally, and I am shocked why this twist of fate did not happened earlier! I bookmarked it.
oh , dear. this is so intereting! i will make some of these. 🙂
This is a Great Post Very Nice
The cooking way of Bug-apillar Banana Dude is a little weird, but I’ll try it later. Just one question: How can I add your blog into my RRS Reader? Thanks a lot:)
Those breadstick mummy dogs are the cutest things I’ve seen in ages! Cannot wait to make them. You’re a genius!
LOVE the hotdog mummys! wondering….PotLuck for work on Friday in honor of Halloween, how would one bake these overnight and then keep them warm or warm them up the following day? I imagine nuking them would make them soggy ;S
These are adorable. I can’t wait to make them for my kids. Thanks for the ideas!
I cannot wait til my 15 month old is old enough to appreciate these fun ways to “play” with food! You just brought back so many memories of my parents doing things like these for us for halloween dinner. And it usually consisted of hotdogs with crescent rolls!
THanks for sharing.. I teach a kids cooking class and these will be perfect for our halloween class next week! Love your blog!
I just made the banana guy for my kids for after school- they LOVED it!!
I’m a huge pig-in-the blanket fan. It’s just one of those childhood foods I still love. Your use of breadstick dough is really clever (so much healthier than the puff pastry typically used). The apples & peanut butter are so cute .. though I can live without the spiders!
I think this might be our Halloween night dinner 🙂 haha! Maybe I can get my picky 2 year old son to eat some fruit if I “dress” it up silly like this.
Interesting recipes! Thanks for sharing!
Love these!!! They are so fun! I will be trying them soon!
Ha those are so cute! How fun!
So fun! I’m definitely going to use some of those ideas for my son’s preschool Halloween party!
Love the mummies! Thanks for the great idea. My kids will love it!
So cute! Love the Halloween ideas. You are so talented. Everything I have ever made off of here has been amazing! Thanks! 🙂
I absolutely loved the mummy hot dogs! I’m making them for my son this year 🙂 and I love the apples and bananas but I might have to find something else to replace the peanut butter as my son is allergic to peanuts. Maybe almond butter?
Thanks for the post!
I’m still laughing at your mummy dogs! With their little mustard eyes. So cute!
Clever girl!
