11 Savory Recipes for Your Halloween Party

For me, one of the hardest parts of planning a Halloween party has been pulling together a solid menu. I usually take the party snacks approach but want something a bit more clever than the spiderweb seven-layer dip or mummy dogs, y'know?

Savory recipes, in particular, seem to be a hard one to come up with.

Over the years, I've made a few fun recipes for myself, but today I've rounded up a few more unique ones you might want to try at your Halloween party this year!



11 Savory Recipes for Your Halloween Party

Roasted Garlic Cheeseball

We'll kick off the list with this uber gothic roasted garlic cheeseball. I love that it's coated in black poppy seeds to give it a darker vibe. SEE THE RECIPE

Amputated Appetizer

I'm a sucker for a good charcuterie board, and prosciutto rolled in mozzarella is always my weakness. If you need something a little on the gruesome side, check out this three cheese hand! SEE THE RECIPE

Marinated Mozzarella Skulls

One more cheesy recipe! My ghoul Hellen over at The Necro-nom-nom-nom-icon is always whipping up amazingly creepy creations. Learn how to make your own skull-shaped mozzarella (it's easier than you think!). SEE THE RECIPE

Shrimp on the Brain

Sometimes you just need to eat brains. This dip shaped like a brain would be great for a Halloween party as well for a zombie movie night. SEE THE RECIPE

Falafel Fingers

I eat halal food on a pretty regular basis and have become obsessed with falafel. I love this savory take on witch fingers and absolutely want to try this! SEE THE RECIPE

Killer Jalapeno Hummus

Another thing I eat on a regular basis? Hummus! So I love finding creepy recipes for new takes on one of my favorite snacks, like this killer jalapeno hummus. SEE THE RECIPE

Monster Sushi

And as long as we're talking about favorite foods, sushi is way up on the list too. I was tickled when I found these Halloweenified sushi balls! SEE THE RECIPE

Pumpkin Stuffed Shells

Looking for a more hearty recipe? I tested out these pumpkin stuffed shells earlier this year, and they were pretty delicious! SEE THE RECIPE

Candy Corn Veggie Tray

Need something quick and easy to take to a party? Make your own candy corn veggie tray using cauliflower, carrots and yellow bell peppers! SEE THE RECIPE

Cheese Graveyard

Making a cheese board for your party? Why not turn it into a graveyard? SEE THE RECIPE

Tortilla Bats with Tomato Salsa

When it doubt, keep it simple! Make your own fresh salsa (so easy and SO much better than the premade stuff!) and bat chips. SEE THE RECIPE
