Halloween Creepy Fingers

Not everything you eat over Halloween has to be unhealthy! I like to have fun making healthy food like carrots and hummus look festive and fun. 

HALLOWEEN CREEPY FINGERS [VEGAN, GLUTEN-FREE]

INGREDIENTS

• 2 garlic cloves
• 2 cups cooked chickpeas
• 1 lemon, juiced
• 1/4 cup tahini
• 2 tablespoon olive oil
• 1/2 tablespoon cumin
• 1/2 tsp cayenne pepper
• 1/4 tsp black pepper
• Salt to taste
• 15 carrots, peeled
• 5 almond slices

PREPARATION

1. To make the hummus: Place the garlic in a food processor and process until chopped. Add the chickpeas, lemon juice, tahini, olive oil, cumin, cayenne pepper, black pepper and salt and blend until smooth.
2. Cut 5 carrot tips to finger length. Cut the remaining carrots into sticks.
3. Cut a flat and shallow notch at the top of each carrot finger. Fill the notch with a tiny bit of hummus to hold an almond slice fingernail.
4. Place the hummus in a serving bowl and stick the Halloween fingers into the hummus so it looks like a hand coming out of the bowl. Surround with carrot sticks and serve.
