Halloween dinners
Posted by andrea tomkins in: Easy ways to make kids happy|parenting|Recipes and Food
A question for parents with trick-or-treating age kids… do you prepare a Halloween-themed dinner or just try to get your kids to eat something healthy before the big sugar rush? I’d love to hear your thoughts.
For the past few years I’ve been making this:
(The recipe is over here in case you’re interested.)
I made bake n’ serve mummies for them ONCE, for a Halloween long ago, and now the kids have the gall to insist I make it every year. (Just kidding. Sort of.) I feel slightly guilty serving this up because it is pretty much nutritionally defunct. I just hope that the raw veggies I serve with it soak up the excess sodium. Sigh.
I think we’d be much better off if I whipped up a kale pesto recipe and called it Alien Booger Juice or something similarly gross like that.
What do you do?
