Mummy Pizza

What You’ll Need: English muffins +

marinara or pizza sauce + mozzarella, cut

into thin strips + sliced black olives + green

peppers, cut into small pieces

What to Do: Split English muffins - spread sauce (toast first if desired).

Arrange strips of mozzarella across the sauce in a crisscross pattern like mummy

Pumpkin Cheese Ball

Ingredients: 3 cups orange cheese puffs

2 pounds cream cheese, at room temperature

3C shredded Cheddar- 1/4C chopped chives

Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper

1 bell pepper with long stem-Crackers, for serving

Directions: 1. Run cheese puffs in a food processor until finely ground. Transfer to

a rimmed baking sheet. 2. Combine the cream cheese, Cheddar, chives, 1 teaspoon salt

and 1/4 teaspoon pepper in a large bowl and mix to combine. Mold the mixture into

a ball, pressing the top of the ball with your hand to flatten it. With the tip of a

butter knife, carve lines down the sides to resemble a pumpkin.

3. Roll the cheese ball in the ground cheese puffs. Remove the entire bell pepper stem

with a paring knife and put it on top of the cheeseball as the pumpkin stem. Seed

and slice the bell pepper.

Serve the cheeseball on a plate with crackers and slices of bell pepper.
