Spider Nachos

I got the idea from While You Were Sleeping but decided to add my own twist.

YUMMY!!! and not too creepy:)



It was really easy to make:)

Here is an ingredient list I used but you can be as creative as you want!!

Tortilla chips
Refried Beans
Taco-Seasoned Hamburger
Chopped Tomatoes
Nacho Cheese or any grated cheese

Layer on a pizza pan. Put in 350 degree oven for 5-10 min until cheese is melted and heated through. Put about 1/4 cup sour cream in a ziplock bag and snip off corner to make a spider web on top!! Serve and enjoy the yummy nachos!!!

I think next time I am going to add some guacolmole:) Let me know what you do with yours!!!



Halloween Menu Board

So I finally broke down and made a menu board. I have wanted one for a while and I had looked at all the different blogs with their ideas but I just couldn't find one that worked for me (or that I had the supplies on hand). Today it just all came together. I kept walking past a picture frame I got for 25 cents at a yard sale this summer wondering what pictures I was going to put in it... but today the light bulb came on! I could use this for my menu board and it would be cute because I could customize it every month and change it whenever I was getting 'board; with it! :) So here it was I did (Sorry I didn't take pictures) The frame had 8- 4x6 picture frame spots. I created 7 cards (one for each day of the week ) and 1 card to celebrate the month (so Halloween) and printed them out on just plain paper, stuck them in the frame and used a dry erase marker to write on the glass! Simple, easy and super cute ( my opinion! ) This could be done with any picture frame so be imaginative and show us what you can do!

Here is the finished product with next weeks menu on it! Isn't it cute? and so festive too!!
