  1. Jack-O'-Lantern Veggie Platter: Create a Halloween-themed veggie platter with carrot and bell pepper strips, cherry tomatoes, and cucumber slices. Serve it with a light and flavorful dip, like hummus or Greek yogurt ranch dressing.



  2. Spooky Fruit Kabobs: Make fruit kabobs using black grapes, mandarin orange segments, and kiwi slices. For an extra touch of spookiness, add edible candy eyeballs to the kiwi slices. Kids will love these ghostly fruit treats.

  3. Witch's Broomsticks: Create witch's broomsticks using pretzel sticks and string cheese. Simply cut the string cheese into thin strips and make small cuts at the end to resemble broom bristles. Insert a pretzel stick into the cheese, and you have a fun and easy Halloween snack.

  4. Monster Mouths: Make monster mouths using apple slices, almond or peanut butter, and mini marshmallows. Spread a layer of nut butter on one side of an apple slice, add mini marshmallow teeth, and then top with another apple slice. The nut butter holds the "mouth" together.

  5. Pumpkin Clementines: Transform clementines or mandarins into mini pumpkins. Simply peel the fruit, and insert a small piece of celery into the top as a stem. It's a healthy and adorable Halloween treat.

  6. Ghostly Cheese Sticks: Turn cheese sticks into spooky ghosts by wrapping them in gauze or white cloth and securing them with googly eyes. Kids will love these playful and protein-packed snacks.

  7. Mummy Rice Cakes: Spread almond butter or cream cheese on rice cakes and create mummy faces using banana slices for the eyes and raisins or blueberries for the pupils. Use thin strips of apple for the mummy's wrappings.

  8. Pretzel and Cheese Broomsticks: Make broomsticks using pretzel sticks and a cheese cube for the bristles. Wrap a chive or a small strip of green bell pepper around the top of the cheese to mimic a broom's binding.

  9. Spiderweb Avocado Toast: Top whole-grain toast or rice cakes with mashed avocado and create a spiderweb pattern using Greek yogurt or sour cream. Add a raisin or a cherry tomato as the spider in the center of the web.

  10. Veggie Skeleton Platter: Arrange a variety of colorful veggies, like bell peppers, cherry tomatoes, cucumber slices, and carrot sticks, to create a veggie skeleton on a large platter. Serve it with a tasty, low-fat dip.
