Green Jello Worm Cups

Ingredients:

4 serving package green jello

4 plastic clear plastic cups

8 Gummy Worms

-Prepare jello according to package instructions and leave to cool in refrigerator for approximately 1 hour.  You need the jello to slightly thicken so “worms” don’t sink but not fully set.  Insert 2 gummy worms into each jello cup and place back in refrigerator to finish setting.

Haunted Graveyard

Ingredients:

1 package instant pudding (vanilla or banana) and/or vanilla ice cream

1 pack of oreo cookies (crushed)

Pepperidge Farm Milano cookies (or any other “tombstone” shaped cookie)

Assortment of Halloween candies

-Prepare pudding according to package instructions and place in serving bowl.  Alternatively you can use vanilla ice cream, or a mixture of pudding and vanilla ice cream.  Place crushed Oreo or other chocolate cookies over pudding/ice cream and insert Milano (or any other “tombstone” shaped) cookies and candies to make a spooky graveyard.  Your toddler will have fun making and eating this really easy tasty treat.

Spooky Carrot Eyes

Ingredients:

Carrots

Cream Cheese

Raisins

-Wash and peel carrots.  Cut into rounds for eyes.  Place a little cream cheese in the center of each carrot and top with a raisin.  Super easy and healthy.
