Healthy Fall Fun: Carved Peppers

Who says Halloween treats have to be sweet to be fun? Enjoy these four fresh ideas!

1. Carved Pepper with Veggies.

2. Carved Pepper with Chicken or Egg Salad.  (Add a lettuce Faux Hawk for added interest.)

3.  Potted Pepper with Carrot and Cilantro. (My 13 year-old son's design.)

4. Stuffed Carved Peppers. Use your favorite stuffed pepper recipe. Or stuff with quinoa.

My favorite stuffed pepper recipe combines ground beef and quinoa. View the recipe here.

We took candy out of our kids' diets in October 2009. Colin (age 13) reflects in The Last Trick-or-Treat.
