Monster Mouths

Ingredients

1-2 green apples
Nut or seed butter

Grapefruit Jack-o-lanterns

Directions

Use a serrated knife to cut the top off a grapefruit and scoop the flesh out much like a pumpkin. Have your kids draw faces on their mini jack-o-lantern with a marker, and carve with a paring knife. Fill with a simple fruit salad (apples, grapefruit, berries, oranges, etc.) and you've got a healthy Halloween snack!
