Ingredients
Method
Preparation
- To make the Spider Eggs, take the halved hard-boiled eggs. Place one olive half in the center of the yolk to be the spider's body. Slice another olive into thin slivers and place four on each side of the body to look like legs.
- For the Cheese Mummies, take a string cheese stick. Carefully wrap the thin strips of halal beef around the cheese, leaving a small opening near the top. Place two tiny dots of olive or peppercorns in that opening to look like eyes peeking out.
- Create Apple Monsters by taking two apple wedges. Spread a thick layer of almond butter on one side of each wedge. Press the wedges together at one end to form a 'mouth.' Stick sunflower seeds or puffed rice into the almond butter to look like jagged teeth.
- Prepare Ghostly Yogurt Bowls by scooping Greek yogurt into small clear cups. Use blueberries to create two eyes and a large oval mouth on the surface of the yogurt.
- For a crunchy side, serve the roasted chickpeas in a small bowl. These represent 'monster brains' or 'crunchy beetles' to keep the theme going.
Serving
- Arrange all the completed snacks on a large dark platter to make the colors pop. Serve immediately while fresh and cool.
Notes
Store leftovers in airtight containers in the refrigerator. Enjoy Spider Eggs and Cheese Mummies within 2 days for best freshness. Apple wedges should ideally be consumed on the day they are prepared, but if stored properly, they can last up to 1 day.
