Get ready to add some spooky fun to your Halloween with this collection of entertaining recipes that will make your party a scream! From eerie appetizers to devilish desserts, each recipe is packed with flavor and a festive twist. My favorite Halloween tradition is hosting a themed party where we all dress up. One year, the kids convinced us to do a Wizard of Oz theme, and another year, we went as hot dogs and ketchup!
This Halloween menu has everything you need for a spooky spread: Orange Crush “Bones,” Zucchini Pizza Bites, and Mummy Pizza Bread are perfect bite sized treats to get the party started. For a haunting main course, try the Wild Rice Butternut Squash Turkey-Stuffed Peppers carved with pumpkin faces, or the Roasted Tomato Garlic Soup served with Breadstick Snakes. Classic Mummy Hot Dogs with Spicy Ketchup are always a hit, especially alongside a “puking pumpkin” filled with Guacamole for extra gross out fun.
Of course, no Halloween party is complete without desserts like Chocolate Spider Brownie Doughnuts, Spider Brownies with sticky marshmallow webs, or Halloween Chocolate Bark paired with a Chocolate Tumbler spiked with coffee liqueur. For a sweet and spooky touch, I love making Dark Chocolate Candied Orange Slices, they’re great on their own or as a garnish!
And don't forget to set up a candy board with homemade treats like White Chocolate Orange Cornflake Clusters alongside your store-bought favorites for guests to snack on throughout the night. These recipes are sure to add a spooky spark to your celebration, making Halloween even more fun for the whole family!

Watermelon is a summer favorite for its juicy, sweet flesh that suits both sweet and savory dishes. Whether in a salad with jalapeños, on a pizza with feta cheese, in a refreshing cocktail—frozen or not—or enjoyed simply as a hydrating snack, its versatility and natural sweetness enhance any recipe, capturing the essence of summer in every bite.
