Mac-n-cheese Anyone?

This next idea can be used for just about anything! You use a pumpkin to cook/serve food in, like this mac n cheese! I don’t have any pictures yet of the Mac n cheese in the pumpkin but here’s a picture of my mac and cheese that I love to make every holiday, not just Halloween Dinners!

Instructions

  • Cut off the tops of the bell peppers and set the tops aside. Remove the seeds from each pepper and discard.
  • Cut out your designs like you would a pumpkin, then cook your peppers 5 minutes in boiling water, drain them and set aside. Go ahead and preheat your oven to 350 degrees
  • Cook your ground beef and onion in a medium to large skillet until meat is browned, crumbling meat as you cook, drain
  • Add the tomato sauce, salt, pepper, chili powder, and corn
  • Once it's all stirred in, stuff each Pepper with the meat mixture, place tops back on and Bake for 15mins.
  • Sprinkle with cheese and bake for another 5-10mins until cheese is melted

Notes

Try to buy larger bell peppers, it will be easier to stuff

If you have any ideas for this pepper recipe, please let me know in the comments! You never know, I may show case it in my next blog post!

The next dinner idea is more of a side recipe, but I had to put it on this list because no only does it have my two favorite things- Potatoes and cheese, it doesn’t require any special gadgets or special skills of any kind! So, it really fits the theme of Simple here! It uses sour cream and a ziploc bag to create this amazing cute but spooky design

Loaded Mashed Potatoes the super easy kind.

The last Halloween dinners idea that I have, well I think it’s the best of all five. I know I like to save the best for last. I believe in that saying, so without further ado, the easiest but spookiest recipe for Halloween dinners must be this Spooky Halloween Spaghetti! I chose this recipe because we always have spaghetti! It is our go to meal when we can’t think of anything to eat LOL . The reason it is so special is because it uses this Crazy Spooky Cool Dye to make the noodles Black!

Black Spaghetti?!

It’s so easy to make the noodles black and you can add olives to make it seem spookier if you like olives. Just make your spaghetti how you usually make it and add in this black dye! I’m for sure going to be making this come Halloween Eve! We always have pizza delivered for Halloween night ,it’s sort of a tradition well because we are all wiped out from trick or treating and partying…kids’ parties that is. I couldn’t leave this Halloween dinners post without mentioning this recipe.

  1. Woah! I’m really digging the template/theme of this blog.
    It’s simple, yet effective. A lot of times it’s very hard to get that “perfect balance” between user friendliness and visual appearance.
    I must say you’ve done a excellent job with this.
    Additionally, the blog loads super fast for me on Safari.
    Excellent Blog!

    1. Hi Rochelle,
      Thank you for the great feedback! Yes I use blogberg theme with wordpress.org. It is a new theme and not a lot of people use it yet but I really love it and love the way it looks. I’ve only been blogging since July/August of 2019 so I don’t know much about themes but I do know that when a blogger is starting out they can’t afford themes so this one is free and I think it’s amazing for free!

  2. My brother recommended I might like this blog.
    He was entirely right. This post actually made my day. You can not imagine simply how much
    time I had spent for this info! Thanks!

  3. Hello, I think your website may be having web browser compatibility issues.
    Whenever I take a look at your web site in Safari, it
    looks fine however, if opening in Internet Explorer, it’s got some overlapping issues.
    I simply wanted to give you a quick heads up! Apart from that, great blog!

    1. Thank you so much for letting me know! I have hopefully fixed the problem. I use Google Chrome for all of my internet needs so I rarely go on internet explorer. I went on and everything seems good on my end. I hope you were able to read the content. Thank you again for looking out!

  4. I’m extremely pleased to find this great site.
    I wanted to thank you for ones time for this fantastic read!!
    I definitely savored every bit of it and i also have you book-marked to look at new information in your
    website.

  5. This is the proper weblog for everyone who wishes to find out about this topic. You already know a lot its virtually difficult to argue with you (not that I just would want…HaHa). You certainly put a fresh spin with a topic thats been discussing for many years. Excellent stuff, just fantastic!

  6. Oh my word black spaghetti – my kids would LOVE that since spaghetti is their favourite food! We’ve never really celebrated Halloween since it isn’t really big here in South Africa but since reading all your awesome Halloween meals posts I’m starting to think I will need to start celebrating it!

    1. Sometimes we just have a party to celebrate! hehe we get dressed up and have lots of fun food. Other times we have a block party with our neighborhood and sometimes we just trick or treat lol. I always ask the kids what they want to do that year. This year I have the 2yr old so we may do trick or treating and a small party for the family.

  7. I’m not sure how I feel about a spider on my dinner. Haha! I love the sound of the stuffed bell peppers. It sounds absolutely delicious. I think I’ve gotta give them a try.

  8. Halloween recipes are so much fun! So much scope for creativity with our regular recipes. And kids enjoy taking part too, don’t they? The stuffed peppers sounds good. I love peppers!

  9. We love stuffed peppers because you can make them spicy one night, and more like a pizza another night! Those loaded mashed potatoes sound amazing! I’m a carb addict!
