Halloween Buffet Tips – Spooky Alternatives to Breadsticks

When planning Halloween party food, creative variations of standard foods can be the talk of the party — but preparation time can sometimes be overwhelming.  If you want to do more than standard breadsticks or dinner rolls this year,  but do not have the time to make “monster bread” or “skeleton bread”, try these two simple alternatives:

1.  Breadstick Bones -

a decorative twist to the standard breadstick.  All you need is get a can of breadstick dough from the refridgerated section of your local supermarket, egg white and parmesan cheese.  

First tie a string loosly around each end of the breadstick.  Do it fairly close to the end, but not right on it.  Remember, this is the part of the bone that will look like the joint.  Next, brush with egg white and sprinkle with parmesan cheese — then bake according to the instructions on the can.  That’s it!

2.  Tinted Kneecaps – Get your standard ready to bake dinner rolls from your local supermarket.  Beat some eggwhite and add orange food coloring (or color of choice).  Brush onto rolls and bake.  This will give a slight halloween glow and tint to your party bread.  You can also add parmesan cheese, or apply to breadsticks instead of rolls.

For someone who is short on time but still wants to make their party fun, these are two great ways keep the Halloween theme without a big fuss.  Tip:  the breadstick bones work especially well as an option on the “dead body buffet“!
