Ingredients

Olive Cream Cheese Spider Bites

  • Gluten-free crackers (sweet potato crackers are orange and festive!)
  • softened cream cheese
  • large pitted black olives

Bell Pepper Olive Monster Eyes

  • Bell peppers
  • softened cream cheese
  • large black olives

Peanut Butter Apple Monster Teeth

  • Green apples
  • Peanut butter
  • Sunflower seeds

Pretzel Cheese Stick Witch Brooms

  • Cheese sticks
  • GF pretzel sticks
  • Fresh chives

Boo-nanas

  • Bananas
  • Large and small chocolate chips

Instructions

  • Olive Cream Cheese Spider Bites
    Spread a little bit of cream cheese on each cracker. Cut the olives in half. Leave one half for the body and thinly slice the other half into 6 slices for the legs. Assemble the legs and body on the cracker. Serve!
  • Bell Pepper Olive Monster Eyes
    Cut the slides of the bell pepper off in 4 flat pieces. Using a small circle cutter, cut bell pepper circles. Place the softened cream cheese in a piping bag with a large circle tip (or in a ziploc with a hole cut in the bottom) and pipe a little cream cheese onto each circle. Slice the olives into ¼-inch wide pieces. Place an olive on the cream cheese. Refrigerate until ready to serve.
  • Peanut Butter Apple Monster Teeth
    Slice the apple. Put a spoonful or two of peanut butter in a small ziploc. Cut a hole in the bag. Squeeze the peanut butter onto one apple slice. Top with another apple and push slightly to stick together. Place sunflower seed “teeth” along the peanut butter. Enjoy!
  • Pretzel Cheese Stick Witch Brooms
    Cut the cheese sticks into thirds. Peel the bottom part of the cheese stick like a broom. Place the pretzel in the center of the cheese stick. Tie a chive around the broom and cut to size. Enjoy!
  • Boo-nanas
    Assemble just before servings so they don’t turn brown. Cut bananas in half. Place small chocolate chips for the eyes and 1 large chocolate chip for the mouth. Enjoy!
