This Halloween dinner idea turns simple ingredients into ghoulish eyeballs. Slice mozzarella string cheese and black olives, then use a straw to create edible eyeballs. Serve over spinach pasta with sauce for a fun, festive meal.
Ingredients
Directions
- Cut the string cheese into slices about 1/4 inch thick. Slice the olives in half lengthwise.
- Using a drinking straw, punch out small circles from the cheese slices. With the same straw, cut out pieces from the olive halves. Press an olive piece into each cheese circle to form an eyeball.
- Prepare the spinach pasta following the package instructions. Serve the pasta topped with your favorite sauce, then arrange the cheese eyeballs on top.
