Fun Halloween Treat Recipes to Make for Your Kids
If you’re looking for healthy Halloween treat recipes, I’m going to warn you up front- you’re in the wrong place. While some of the ideas below are on the healthier side, I basically went for super fun, super sweet, and super-fantastic alternatives to the tasty goodness your kids would find in their trick or treat bag. Hey, Halloween only comes once a year, so I say let kids indulge! They can go back to eating carrot sticks for snacks on November 1st. 🙂
I’m having a bad back pain sort of day, so I’m taking the somewhat lazy approach here. I’m not going to talk about each of the recipes. I mean, you can tell by the pictures whether they appeal to you or not, right? Just click the pictures or the link below them to head straight to each blogger’s website to grab the recipes.
