Happy Halloween Muffin Tin Monday

I had so much fun with this muffin tin.  I actually made it a while back - I just got so excited when I had the ideas that I had to make it right away.
 Homemade spaghetti in an orange jack o'lantern bell pepper (idea for this came from an old Taste of Home), a pumpkin sugar cookie (in a Halloween muffin liner), meatball eyeballs, and breadstick witch's fingers.
How seriously cute is the bell pepper?  Pierce loved this meal so much.  He ate really well and even ate a good bit of the bell pepper, even though he'd never had an orange one before.

How cute the pepper is. It is all cute.

I have seen oranges cut into a pumpkin face and then used as a fruit cup.

Love your bell pepper idea! That is about the cutest thing ever.

This idea is just too too great. Not just to get them to eat their veggies, but to be able to carve "pumpkins" year-round. Love this so much.
