Give me your favorite Halloween meals!
beehaw.org
So I know Halloween isn't a day with a huge meal tradition like xmas or tday, but I'm having some dear friends stay with me that weekend and I would love to cook up something Halloweeny. So I'm curious, do any of you have any go-to meals/dishes for Halloween? No real requirements here, it can be outright spooky/gross or just autumn themed, and anything in between. Looking mostly for savory ideas, as the treats will be flowing already. I did the pinterest thing but love sourcing from communities like this. Thanks in advance for any thoughts/ideas!!

I mostly agree with you about the looking bad and not tasting good, but I have made the "Meat Hand" before and that was just as good as normal food if you like meatloaf. Just make your recipe of choice but form into a hand shape, top it with a little cheese before baking, and cook on a sheet pan, then transfer into mashed taters. Looks great/horrifying, hard to mess up, and tastes like regular food. Plus ketchup makes "blood.". Options fingernails are just onion slivers and the wrist is the onion core/center part.
Pic below isn't mine, but mine came out looking just as good.
That actually sounds good. Meatloaf isn't something I would think of
You should try it! I forget where I saw the idea originally, but my ex was very into Halloween, so we made it.
I normally don't like meatloaf, but the different shape and the crunchy cheese gave it a texture I enjoyed better, so IMO it's even better in hand form then it is as normal meatloaf!
Its the onion fingernails that really push this over the edge haha...
It's the little details that make things special 😂
This is awesome! What a fun idea!
It's really simple and the results are well worth it. I'm glad you enjoyed it!
I dug through my archives and found my pics of the one I made.
