Receta Creepy Crawlers Sandwiches for Halloween
Today we have another healthy Halloween recipe from Holly Clegg, a Creepy Crawlers Sandwich! This sandwich is fun to make for Halloween or anytime you want to have fun food, like for a bug themed party! You can use whole wheat bread or gluten free bread if you like.
If your child has a peanut allergy, you can use sunflower butter instead. Have you tried sunflower butter? It’s delicious! There are several brands on the market, but my favorite is available at Trader Joe’s. I like it even better than peanut butter and would use it in my Creepy Crawlers Sandwich!
While Holly’s recipe doesn’t call for any jam, a dab of honey would be awesome on these Creepy Crawlers Sandwiches.
If you want to get really gruesome for Halloween, you could put a big spoonful of strawberry jelly, and have it oozing out of the sides of the Creepy Crawlers Sandwiches and on to the sandwich platter like blood. Ewwwwwwwww, totally gross! The kids will LOVE it!
