Looking for something more savory? These severed fingers might scare the kids at first, but the sight of hotdogs will make them want to take a bite—or two—anyway.
You can also serve these severed fingers for breakfast or pack them in your kids’ school lunch boxes. Just remember to create a big batch because these will be a big hit!
5. Halloween burgers
If you’re looking for something easy to prepare but filling for your guests, the Halloween burger is a no-brainer. You can follow this simple recipe where you prepare the patties ahead of time and grill them when the party starts.
You can ask Dad to man the grill station while you assemble the burgers for guests. Or you can create a DIY burger station where guests can put together their own for extra fun.
