ZOMBIE eyeballs - Deviled eggs - Kids HALLOWEEN party ideas - themed food

I love Halloween and love to make themed party food. Here are my deviled eggs this year. 

Hard boiled eggs and my regular deviled egg recipe. 

This was my test run before the party so I used pre-made hard boiled eggs from the store. If you are short on time it works perfect. I do think homemade tastes sooooooo much better.

I added green food color and mixed. I always bag and use an icing tip to re-fill. You can fill any way you like. 

NOTE: One year I tried using avocado to make them green BUT if you pre-make (which I do) the avocado turns brown and so do your eggs. They look really gross and maybe that's what you are going for. I wanted them green so food color did the trick!

Smoothed out

Added olives for the center of the eye

Added red food color to mayo and drew red "veins"

Everyone loved them!!!

Easy HALLOWEEN food IDEA - Red Velvet Rice Crispy Treats RECIPE - party-kids- RAW MEAT?

I'm making my FAVORITE rice crispy recipe and tweaking it a bit for Halloween. I love themed food! We are not a "cutesy" Halloween family but more "gory and gross" Halloween family so these are PERFECT!

I made these tonight for a Halloween themed game night as a trial run for our big Halloween bash! They are AH-MAZING!!!! Huge vote "YES" from the family with some excited dancing and uuummmm's while eating them. The true test will be at the game night but I'm pretty confident these are a keeper. 

What is it? RAW MEAT, of course! 

Looks like it doesn't it? Crazy gross thinking of eating this but if they are brave it's a sweet surprise!

Recipe: (Sorry I don't have the cute printable feature but it's not that hard to remember)

8C - Rice Krispies Cereal

3C - Mini marshmallows

1 Jar - 7oz Marshmallow Creme

1/2C - Red Velvet Box Cake (NOT the whole box)

1 - Stick of Butter

 4-6 Drops of red food color (optional)

Low low heat (I use our MELT setting) add the butter until completely melted. 

Add mini marshmallows and jar marshmallow cream and mix well with butter. 

NOW BE PATIENT

Mix often so it doesn't burn in the center. This will take a while but it will become completely smooth. 

Add red velvet cake mix and mix well. It will look brown and get a little hard to stir. 

It looked a little too brown but maybe it's old meat. I opted to make it a little more fresh.

OPTIONAL- Red Food Color

Add rice crispy cereal. It will look like it's way too much and no way enough marshmallow mix to cover it but it will. PLENTY! I promise.

Oh and mixing is kinda a super stick nightmare. You'll understand when you make it. Impossible to get all of it off. I used a spatula at first but then just used one hand. WHY? You need the other had to get it all off the coated hand. Seriously, use only one hand. It's crazy sticky.

Then transfer to a plate or ideally a rectangle white foam tray to really look like grocery store meat. I used parchment paper to press it firmly (it won't stick to the that paper) and kinda odd shaped it. I press firm since I want it to cut nicely to serve. I thought about putting it in mini brain molds but we already have too many brain theme food right now. 

Hope you enjoy! If I forgot anything just ask!

KIDS Halloween PARTY ideas - decorations, food, and games!

Every year we have a Halloween party (except last year since we were moving) and it's always so much fun! I love themed food, planning games and especially decorating. Over the years we've gotten a little more scary but that's the best part!

Here are photos from our last two Halloween parties. Both are very similar but maybe better pics from one or the other so I'm posting both.

Mini powdered donuts on string. Hands behind your back try to see who gets the donut eaten first!

2011

On the table I had mini candy necklace kits to keep kids busy until all the guests arrived.

Donut game again but instead of two at a time we had eight go at a time and then the winners.

Ghost pop! I filled balloons with treats or novelties and with a sharpie made the ghost eyes and mouth. They had to "pop" all the ghosts as fast as they could and get to keep anything inside.

I made this out of small boxes, holes cut out (just small enough for a hand to fit) and covered in black table clothes and spider web. There are 24 holes and about half contained a novelty toy or treat. The rest had cooked spaghetti (felt cold and slimy) :D Brave souls dared to reach in! Mwahahahaha!
