Healthy Halloween Party Treats
Halloween doesn’t mean you have to abandon your healthy eating habits altogether. Continue getting your protein fix this spooky season with these fun, protein-packed Halloween treats.
Adding extra protein during the day is a great Halloween trick for keeping your energy levels and cravings sustained and satisfied throughout the day.
Witch's Brew Hummus
Serve up a witch's brew of protein-packed hummus with a side of veggie "witch fingers." Turn your hummus green with a few added drops of green food coloring to really play into the theme. Serve with carrot or celery sticks shaped like witch fingers by adding almond slivers for nails.
Mummy Meatballs
Turn classic meatballs into mummies by using lean ground meat (beef, turkey, or chicken) and forming them into small balls. Wrap thin strips of crescent roll dough around each meatball, leaving a small gap for the eyes. Bake until the dough is golden brown, and then add two small dots of ketchup or mustard for eyes to make this spooky and delicious tailgate or pre-dinner snack.
Frankenstein Protein Smoothie Bowl
Blend up a Frankenstein-inspired protein smoothie bowl by combining Flavor & Fettle’s plant-based vanilla protein powder, spinach or kale for the green color, and Greek yogurt for creaminess. Use sliced bananas, berries, and dark chocolate chips to create Frankenstein's face on top of the smoothie bowl. This is a great protein-rich Halloween breakfast treat boasting at least 15 grams of protein per serving!
Deviled Egg Eyeballs
Deviled eggs are a classic favorite, and you can give them a spooky twist by turning them into "eyeballs." After making your deviled eggs, place a sliced olive in the center of each one to create the pupil of an eyeball. If you’re feeling extra spooky, tint the deviled egg mixture with a tiny drop of green food coloring before adding it in. Eggs are a wholesome, protein-packed snack that also provide essential nutrients and healthy fats.
These nourishing protein-packed Halloween treats can help maintain your nutritional goals during this sugar-laden season. Get creative in the kitchen and enjoy a Halloween filled with delicious, protein-packed indulgences. And enjoy a piece of candy or two on the side—we’re all about balance!
