Trick out your Halloween dinner table with some of these spooky treats. It’s probably the only way to get something healthy into the bellies of your little goblins.

	APPLE BITES These toothsome treats are a fun and healthy break from Halloween sweets. Just quarter and core an apple, cut a wedge from the skin side of each quarter, and then press slivered almonds in place for teeth. If you’re not going to serve them right away, baste the apples with orange juice to keep them from browning.
	EDIBLE EYEBALLS Set out a platter of these creepy peepers, and your party guests are bound to do a double take. Simply slice carrots into 1-inch-thick chunks, top each with a blob of cream cheese and one half of a pitted black olive, and they’re ready to serve.
	GHOST TOAST Looking for a treat that truly embodies the spirit of Halloween? Try serving some of these flavorful phantoms. For each, toast a slice of white bread and then cut a ghost shape from it. You can do this freehand using a knife, or you can use a gingerbread-girl cookie cutter. When the cutouts have cooled, spread on a generous coating of whipped cream cheese. For eyes and mouths, add raisins.
	ENGLISH MUMMIES These yummy mummy pizzas make a quick and fun Halloween lunch or dinner. To create one, first spread a tablespoon of pizza sauce onto half of an English muffin (toast it first, if you like). Set olive slices in place for eyes and add round slices of green onion or bits of red or green pepper for pupils. Lay strips of cheese (we used a pulled-apart cheese stick) across the muffin for the mummy’s wrappings. Bake at 350° until the cheese is melted and the muffin is toasty, about 10 minutes.
	MELON BRAIN Created from nothing more than a small, round seedless watermelon, this spooky cerebral creation is bound to turn heads. First, use a vegetable peeler to remove the entire green rind, exposing the inner white rind. Then slice off the bottom of the melon to make a flat base that will keep it from rolling. With a toothpick, outline squiggly furrows that resemble the folded surface of a brain. Finally, carve narrow channels along the tracings with a sharp paring knife (a parent’s job) to expose the pink fruit beneath the rind.
