Spooky meals for Halloween - or any day this fall

Last week, I shared with you some of my favorite Halloween-themed appetizers.

This week we will dive into some spooky entree offerings.

The entree is the star of the show when it comes to the holidays, and Halloween is no exception. The recipes that I have included will satisfy both adults and children alike, and I particularly enjoy their versatility whether your party features a sit-down meal or a stroll-through buffet.

This selection of recipes works for All Hallow's Eve, but they also can be served for any fall-themed party throughout the next couple of months.

Reminiscent of the Rocky Horror Picture Show: I would like, if I may, to take you on a strange journey through my Spooky Kitchen of Delights that will lure you in for more fright and delight!

And with this, I could not agree more!

Note: Take the mozzarella balls and place two eyes with black olive pieces, then place on top of pumpkin chili for spooky eyeballs. You can also choose peppercorns for the eyes.

Note: You can serve meat separate, if desired, and place the other contentsin the pumpkin. You can also serve this meal in a bowl with soft bread sticks wrapped in string cheese and baked a few minutes. I call them web sticks.

Note: Serve with fresh vegetables or fruit. For fun, use Halloween cookie cutters for fruit and vegetables.
