Recipe: Halloween School Lunch Recipes (8)

Hi Lynn:-) I did a search on the internet. The following are ideas I found that I thought might work for you. Unfortunately none of the recipes are for 200 so you will need to do some math to get the amounts you need. I hope one of these will help.

MONSTER TOES
Servings: 8-10
These are sooo cute for a Halloween Snack for kids. It came from Family Fun.

1 lb cocktail franks
6 to 8 flour tortillas
ketchup or mustard
toothpicks

Heat the oven to 350 degrees.

Cut a wedge into the end of each cocktail wiener to make a flat toenail.

Cut the tortillas into strips about 4 inches long and 1/2 inch wide. Discard the ends. Soften the strips in the microwave between damp paper towels for 10 to 30 seconds.

Roll each wiener in a tortilla strip around one end and secure with a toothpick. Place on a cookie sheet.

Bake for 7 to 8 minutes. Remove them from the oven, then fill the toenail with ketchup or mustard.

Remove the toothpicks before serving.

1/2 teaspoon oregano
1 teaspoon sweet basil

hoagie rolls

Brown hamburger and onion, drain well.

Add other ingredients except cheese.

Cut buns in half and butter them. Put ground beef mixture on each and then cheese on each.

(CHICKEN) WITCH FINGERS

1 Tbsp vegetable oil
4 boneless chicken breasts
1 cup flour
1 egg, beaten
1 cup bread crumbs
Pitted black olives, halved lengthwise
Shredded lettuce

Grease cookie sheet with oil, set aside.

Carefully cut chicken breasts part way to create five "fingers" (the uncut part will be the palm of the hand). Slice them a little crooked for effect. Dust in flour, dip in egg, coat in bread crumbs.

Broil 5 minutes on each side until golden and cooked through.

Trim the tips with the olive fingernails and serve on lettuce.

SPOOKY SAMMIES

sandwich fillings
cream cheese
black olives

Create sandwiches filled with tuna salad, chicken salad, or turkey/lettuce/tomato/cream cheese. Cut filled sandwiches into ghost shapes and spread tops with soft cream cheese. Add black olive pieces for eyes and mouth. (To create shapes, first slice off crusts. Then trim off 2 upper corners, forming an arch as you cut. And carve a wavy line along bottom portion.)

BARBECUED BAT WINGS
Servings: 8

4 pounds chicken wings
2 cups ketchup
1 1/2 cups molasses
1/3 cup apple cider vinegar
3 tablespoons Worcestershire sauce
2 tablespoons sugar
Hot sauce to taste
Salt
Black pepper
Black paste food coloring
Blue paste food coloring
Green paste food coloring

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees.

Boil the chicken wings for twenty minutes in a large pot.

While the wings are cooking, prepare the sauce. Whisk together the ketchup, molasses, vinegar, Worcestershire sauce, sugar, hot sauce, salt, and pepper until smooth in a large roasting pan. Add enough black, blue, and green food colorings to the sauce to make a dark black sauce.

Place the pan in the oven and bake for 10 minutes, stirring once.

Drain the wings well and add them to the sauce and toss to coat evenly, poking the wings liberally with a fork.

Bake for 20 minutes, then increase the temperature to 450 degrees. Toss the wings in the sauce again to coat evenly. Bake until the sauce is thickened and slightly blackened, flipping the wings over occasionally, about another 15 minutes. Serve hot or at room temperature.

Cut the hot dogs into thin slices and score the edges (about three cuts per slice).

Boil or microwave until the slices curl like wiggly worms. Serve three or four worms to a bun.
