I saw a cool appetizer recently, called Creepy Crostini. I think I saw it in Food Network Magazine, so I wanted to re-create it, with my twist. It looked so fun and delicious, and I had some ingredients on hand to make these Boo-tiful Bruschetta, and I thought that I could re-create their appetizer, with yummy ingredients from my fridge! I love Halloween parties, and these are sure to be a big hit with adults, and kids alike.
I go all out for my Halloween get-togethers, and even when it is just the family watching scary movies, or even our annual watching of It’s The Great Pumpkin Charlie Brown, I still have to make Halloween inspired snacks to get everyone in a spooky mood! Halloween is one of my favorite holiday’s!
This Appetizer is so easy to put together, and you just need a baguette, store bought hummus, Jarred red pepper slices, radish slices, capers, and green onion, thinly sliced. Just spread a bit of hummus on each slice, and add thin slices of roasted red peppers for the hair, then, radish slices for the eyes. Top with capers, then some green onion for the mean looking eyebrows, and your done!
I made about 14 of these little guys, and everyone just loved the way they looked, and they way they tasted! Perfect for a pre-Halloween dinner, or a spooky get-together, or even a scary movie marathon! Although, I love scary movies, I am a bit of a scared-y cat. But I am not afraid to eat one of these delicious little snacks. Or two, for that matter.
You can make your own hummus, or you can get store bought. I just happen to have some store bought hummus in the fridge, and I dip carrots in it for a quick and healthier snack, but these Boo-tiful Bruschetta, stole the show! Thanks to a recipe in a magazine, I just kicked up my Halloween celebrations up a notch!
