Fun and Healthy Halloween Food Idea: Olive Snake

It's getting close to my favorite Holiday: Halloween! I know it's still 2 and a half month away, but it's never too early to start collecting ideas.

This olive snake was made from California Ripe Olives, a little piece of cheese slice and carrot.
Cute? Or too spooky?

You can serve this snake as a little afternoon snack.

Serve it on the side of your Greek Salad.

Or place the snake on top of your favorite cream cheese dip, and serve with crackers or veggie sticks!

Special thanks to California Ripe Olives for sponsoring this post and the upcoming giveaway.

Playable Edible Game

Tweet Pin It Now!

It's in the middle of the summer when you can do all kind of activities outside such as swimming, camping, biking......
If for any reason you have to stay at home, how do you keep the kids away from TV or video cames? How about playing tic tac toe? Even better.... edible tic tac toe!

I used store bought cookie icing to draw the lines on a cutting board; food marker to draw on Mentos.
If you have trouble finding food markers, you can use 2 different colours of Mentos (or any kinds of candy) instead of drawing O and X.

For healthier version: draw the lines with ranch dressing or mayo; use vegetable instead of candy!

You don't have to cut the veggie into fun shapes. I did it just to make the picture looks better.

Cereal Tic Tac Toe

Play the game with peanuts and yogurt covered raisins


Don't forget to check out the 10% coupone code for SodaStream on my last post. It's good until the end of this month.
