Spooky Spider Halloween Appetizer Dip

This Halloween appetizer dip “recipe” is really more of a how-to post, filled with ideas and tips.   It’s fun and easy to make, and can even be created ahead of time, so your spider is all ready to go, just waiting to make a spook-tacular appearance on your Halloween appetizer buffet!

One of the very best things about Halloween is that it’s so purely creative. No need for expensive gifts or greeting cards or stressful obligations. Just fun and silliness – the more, the better! 

Ingredients

– orange bell pepper  – sliced black olive 

Step 1:  Choose the Right Pepper Shape – The best tip I can give you is simply to take an extra moment at the store or farm market, to choose a pepper that will just naturally become a spider’s body.

Step 2:  Select Your Pepper Color – Orange is the obvious Halloween color, but green would be eerily excellent, too. 

Step 3:  Options for Your Spider’s Eyes – Tiny triangles cut from canned, sliced black olives work really well.
