Halloween Treat: Attack of Vampiric Pumpernickel Bats!

October 18, 2010 by Suzie the Foodie 6 Comments

This weekend we had the crappiest weather! Dark and stormy, right out of a scary movie. As a result, I got into a comfort food-making mood. Here you have my roasted butternut squash soup topped with croutons I made out of this bread machine pumpernickel bread. Yes, I was going stir crazy and a tad bored so […]

Halloween Treat: Gelatin Worm & Spider Infested Heart

October 15, 2010 by Suzie the Foodie 4 Comments

I know, I am a total weirdo! And that’s OK, LOL. I bought this realistic heart mold at Spirit Halloween and had to give it a shot. After my disastrous attempt to make a fortune teller’s ball I took Ava’s advice and sprayed it with cooking spray and gave working with gelatin another shot. Success! Spooky success, my favourite […]

Halloween Treat: Spicy Nuts From Hell!!!!

October 13, 2010 by Suzie the Foodie 4 Comments

The name of this recipe is a tad dramatic, considering I only used a pinch of cayenne, but for those who love life hot and spicy, add more and more! Recently I bought a giant package of nuts and did not realize they were unsalted at the time. I have been trying to figure out […]

Halloween Treat: Spicy Witches’ Brew

October 9, 2010 by Suzie the Foodie 6 Comments

I was going to make Taste of Home’s version of a witch’s brew but after how challenging it was to make the accompanying witch’s broomstick, I decided to take some of their ideas and make my own homemade hot chocolate with a little kick. In a couple of tablespoons of water I added three Hot […]

Halloween Treats: Taste of Home’s Witches’ Broomsticks

October 9, 2010 by Suzie the Foodie 6 Comments

I am all about the witches so when I had the opportunity to make Taste of Home’s Witches’ Broomsticks I just had to try it. I had the perfect cinnamon stick and some black shoestring licorice I got at the Bulk Barn but picking up “orange candy slices” proved a little more challenging. I mean, what […]

Halloween Treats: Fat Ogre Fingers

October 5, 2010 by Suzie the Foodie 6 Comments

Now these are true finger foods! I got this idea from a Halloween magazine I bought that I just can not find anywhere online! They recommend using breadstick dough but I had some leftover whole wheat dough I wanted to try using instead: I used this recipe for whole wheat bread machine pizza dough. Do not […]

Halloween Treats: Taste of Home’s Midnight Mice

October 1, 2010 by Suzie the Foodie 11 Comments

Happy October! Today is the first day of my Halloween foodie posts and I FINALLY have a success to share with you! These little chocolate crispy peanut butter mice are fabulous and they come from Taste of Home. I did not need three dozen of these creatures so I divided the recipe in half and […]

Halloween Foodie Disasters

September 27, 2010 by Suzie the Foodie 7 Comments

Normally I try and celebrate my disasters, I write about them all the time. Halloween foodie disasters? That is an entirely different story. These make me want to throw in the foodie towel. If you have signed up for my newsletter you will be aware of some of these foodie stories but I have been […]

Halloween Chocolate Orange Holiday Cake

November 4, 2009 by Suzie the Foodie 4 Comments

This Chocolate Cake with Orange Cream Cheese Icing saved my Halloween. I had chosen an online recipe foolishly NOT from the Food Network sites and all was going well until I realized that I had not pre-heated the oven. So I went to look for the temperature in the recipe and could not find it. […]

Secret Family Crab Dip Recipe

November 3, 2009 by Suzie the Foodie 8 Comments

I had to get special permission from my family members to share this recipe with all of you. We have been eating this crab dip for years at all our family celebrations. My sister Jamie used this recipe at a party she and our sister Shannon catered once. Shannon taste tested the recipe since Jamie […]
