Great Halloween party food can leave your guests begging for more

It’s October, so say hello to Halloween again and start getting ready for your Halloween parties!  If you are stumped on what kind of foods to make this Halloween, try out some of our tried and true twists on regular party food, and have your guests howling for more!

Want a nice, goulish appetizer?  Try some Bloody Ears .  Concocted from Shrimp and cocktail sauce, its a tasty and bloody-looking treat.  You can also try your hand at some fingers, ears and eyeballs for some additional body parts, or go the whole distance and create and entire Halloween dead body buffet.

If getting good and bloody isn’t your thing and your kids are young, you can always opt for something a little more mild and with less gore.  Bring a little Halloween to your lunch or dinner some spooky alternatives to breadsticks:  Breadstick Bones and Tinted Kneecaps.

It doesn’t take much to take up your Halloween festivities a notch with some easy-to-make Halloween Party recipes.  The only requirement is that you get your groceries ahead of time, to make sure you have all your ingredients.

Happy Halloween!

All three items can be made in virtually every course, so when looking for recipes for each of these, decide what course you want them for, or just look at all the options and then decide.  The following are some ways that fingers ears and eyeballs are served up on Halloween:

Fingers:  The best recipes I have seen have been for cookies and severed fingers made from shrimp (both cocktail and freshly cooked).  When searching for recipes, try Halloween Fingers, Witches Fingers and Severed Fingers Recipe — they should yield you a number of results to choose from.

Ears:  Ears can be made out of shrimp (both cocktail and freshly cooked/served warm) and made bloody with a little cocktail sauce or spicy marinara.   I haven’t seen many recipes for ears, but   I have been serving them up as appetizers for years.   You can also make ear cookies and bloody them up with a little food coloring and gel  icing .  If you want to keep it simple, put a platter or dried apricots, apples and pears out to resemble old dried out dead ears.

Eyeballs — the majority of the recipes I have seen have been in the eyeball category.  There are a lot of choices available here.   You can make gelatinous eyeballs, eyeballs made from eggs,  olive eyeballs, cookies, pudding eyeballs.  You can search for different options and see which ones you like.

No matter which version you pick, they will look absolutely great on your Halloween food table.   If you really want to gross people you can put together a whole “dead body buffet“!
