HALLOWEEN APPETIZERS - Bone Shaped Breadsticks

Dem Bones Dem Bones are simple breadsticks that you turn into bone shapes - they're just that simple and delicious. I use those prepared doughs you find in the freezer or refrigerated section of the store because it's a lot quicker, but if you insist feel free to make your own dough!

If you want you can brush them with an herb butter or sprinkle on some seasoned salts for more flavor. These are great with some of the Halloween dips and spreads I posted this month - especially the spinach dip I call Slimy Green Goo Dip but you'll see people eating them just by themselves too so make a good pile of 'em!

Be sure to check out the latest Halloween Martini at The Martini Diva and check out these fun Halloween websites for Halloween music, carving tips and patterns and other Halloween fun.

HALLOWEEN APPETIZERS - Eyeballs & Fingers

These two recipes take a little time to create but the reaction of your Halloween guests when they arrive at your party buffet is well worth the effort!

Both are cheese appetizers but with a little Halloween flair - severed fingers and a plate full of eyeballs staring back at you is definitely something you can only pull off on October 31st!

Have fun - get your kids to help you, kids love making freaky food, lol.

Hop on over to The Martini Diva for today's Halloween Martini and use the search bar or check the blog archives here and there for all my Halloween goodies posted this month.

ONLY 4 MORE DAYS TO HALLOWEEN!

HALLOWEEN APPETIZERS - 2 New Halloween Food Recipes

These two recipes actually can go nicely together on your Halloween Party Buffet - The "Wickedly Good Witches" are deli meat salads spread on breads that are cut out with Halloween cookie cutters - always a good staple for a Halloween Hoard.

The Spooky Slimy Slaw is a really delicious Red Cabbage Coleslaw with a wonderfully sweet touch that compliments your more savory dishes and stands alone pretty well too.

I'm always fond of fun garnishes and presentations so I buy a lot of gourds and mini pumpkins this time of year, hollow them out and use them as serving dishes. I also have a really nice collection of beautiful Halloween crockery and plates for serving up my goblets of goblin fare - and I've amassed a nice bit of fun plastic containers (like plastic skulls) for dips, spreads and other holiday eats.

Try your hand at some unusual serving choices and be sure to stop by The Martini Diva this week for the last ten of my famous Halloween Martini recipes!

HALLOWEEN APPETIZERS - Olive Tapenade dressed up for Halloween

Bat Guano Caviar - sounds pretty gruesome, right? Don't run screaming from the blog yet - it's really just a simple Olive Tapenade and it's really delicious!

A tapenade is basically just olives, capers, anchovies and olive oil chopped finely and served up on bread or toast points as an hors d'oeuvre. The word tapenade comes from the provençale word for capers, tapéno. It's very salty thanks to the anchovies and the olives themselves and this is why I gave it the name "caviar" - Bat Guano was just my little Halloween theme addition!

Serve it up with some bread cut out in Halloween shapes and toasted and enjoy! Be sure to serve it up with one of my fun Halloween Martinis from The Martini Diva and your Halloween party will be a hit.
