Halloween Breakfast Recipe
When you want some extra fun for breakfast on Halloween, make my monster eyeball yogurt to delight the family.
Of course, we love Halloween candy and treats, but it is great to have fun Halloween food options that are healthy and good for us.
This nutrient rich Greek yogurt is colored with all natural powdered food coloring that can also add extra nutrition.
The monster eye is made from a banana slice and a little candy eyeball as a tiny treat.
Mine monster yogurts are topped with a single eye, since that is what fit nicely in my little jars.
Feel free to add two (or three!) eyes, if you are using a flatter dish that has space for them.
I happen to be a fan of green monsters, so this Halloween yogurt is green.
However, you can use any color you’d like.
Regular food color is ok, but I prefer using a powdered natural coloring made from ingredients that add color and other benefits.
There are many plant-based brands available, but Suncore is the one that I am most familiar with.
For green, you can choose from Emerald Pandan Leaf Supercolor Powder that has a vanilla-like flavor or Midori Jade Matcha that contains fiber and caffeine.
Other Supercolors that would be great for monsters include:
- Pink Pitaya
- Blue Butterfly Pea
- Purple Sweet Potato
- Red Beet
- Cerise Prickly Pear
- Lilac Taro Yam
- Aqua Blue Spirulina
- Fuchsia Hibiscus
- and others!
Have fun and choose the color or colors that will make your family smile.
Add a little color or a lot, depending upon your personal preferences.
Happy Halloween!
