Green Hair with Bloody Eyeballs and Toenail Clippings
spaghetti
green or blue food colouring
ground beef or bison, egg and breadcrumbs (or any meatball mixture)
green pimento-stuffed olives
whatever tomato sauce you like on your spaghetti
whole chunk of Parmesan cheese
Bring a large pot of water to a boil and add several drops of green or blue food colouring. Boil spaghetti according to package directions.
Blend ground beef, egg, breadcrumbs or whatever you typically add to your meatball mix; shape into balls around a olive, positioning it so that it looks like an eyeball. Bake on a rimmed baking sheet at 350F for 15-20 minutes, until cooked, or cook them in a hot skillet with a little canola or olive oil until cooked through. Warm the spaghetti sauce at the same time.
Carve half moon shapes out of Parmesan cheese so that they look like toenails. Serve green spaghetti topped with eyeballs, tomato sauce and toenail clippings.
Blood & Gutscakes
a batch of vanilla (or any flavour) cupcakes
a batch of lemon pie filling, tinted green
raspberry or cherry jam or pie filling
frosting and sprinkles
If you like, tint the vanilla cupcake batter with a bit of red and green to make a fleshy colour. Bake as you normally would, cool and then cut a chunk out of the top like an inverted cone. Remove the excess cake from the cone, leaving a flat lid (kind of like a pumpkin) and hollow out a bit of the cake inside. Put a small spoonful of jam and a spoonful of lemon filling inside, swirling them a bit as you do. Top with the lid and frost with whatever frosting you like
