Tweet

What are some good websites (or threads) that discuss recipes/ideas for Halloween appetizers?

what kind of appys are you thinking of?? Hot , cold, dips, .... I had put a buffalo chicken dip ,and a chicken curry cheese ball on just the other day (can't remember which thread) People had posted lots of meatball recipes. I have a cold greek dip, a hot mexican dip, pepperoni bread, hot spinach dip, and lots more that are pretty great, if you want to give me an idea of what you need Martha Stewart has some good recipes, All Recipes.com is a fantastic site to go to for anything you may need.

The Greek dip sounds interesting as well as the chicken curry cheese ball.
Thanks!

Chicken Curry Cheese Ball

2pkgs cream cheese
2 cans (5 oz) canned chicken , drained
1 cup green grapes, chunked
4 green onions, finely chopped
2 TBSP sour cream
1 tsp curry

combine in bowl and shape into ball.

I would probably leave out the onions or substitute white onion for the green, and chop the grapes up finely (adds a lot to the recipe), I was thinking of adding a bit of food coloring to either "gray" or "pink" it up for the brain color???

sounds like a crazy recipe, I know , but it's really good. I also add red pepper if I am not making it for a brain

Here is the All Recipes link

http://allrecipes.com/Recipes/Appeti...acks/Main.aspx

http://allrecipes.com/Recipe/Two-Lay...ip/Detail.aspx

that is the link to the Greek Dip I use. I use Greek yogurt instead of regular yogurt (less watery)

We make most of our party food as appetizers, but we do throw in a couple salads and a couple desserts. We give everything a gross name, but it's really just regular tasty food. I'm still working on this year's menu, but I expect we'll repeat several of our favorites:

Devilled Eggs
Demon Fingers in Bloody Sauce (lil' smokie sausages in Sweet Baby Ray's BBQ sauce)
Bat Wings (Sweet chili sauced chicken wings)
Dragon Lung with mucus spread (Chinese BBQ pork tenderloin slices with hot mustard)
Swamp Dip with Reptile skins (Spinach and Artichoke dip with tortilla chips)
Beetle and Larvae Salad (Greek salad made with orzo pasta and Kalamata olives)
Spare Parts Salad (chopped vegetable salad with balsamic dressing)
Martian Brain Mold (lemon and lime jellos with crushed pineapple in a brain mold--we put this on a clear plate and light it with a multi-color changing light from underneath)
Roadkill links (Phillipino Longanisa sausage cooked up--delicious!)
Witches fingers cookies
Gravestone cookies
Coffin Cake (Devil's food cake shaped like a coffin and filled with Cherry pie filling and frosted--similar to an inside out Black Forest Cake)
Vampire Punch (our Sangria recipe)
We'll also have some vodka soaked gummy bears and we are making some skittles flavored vodka

Before I discovered this awesome site and the great people on it, I used to get some pretty good ideas from Britta Peterson at www. eerieelegance.com--I even bought her book!

I've not planned food much yet, but I'll certainly be making Devil's fingers - Mozzarella and jalapeno coated in breadcrumbs and fried.
There will be a twist, though....
One in three of them will have a piece of Dorset Naga chilli (THE hottest chilli in the world, Jalapenos come in at 3000 - 6000 SHU which is the standard unit for chilli heat, the Dorset Naga has been recorded up to 1.6 million SHUI !) in them instead of Jalapeno.
There *will* be warnings, and plenty of water if needed
