Jack-0-Lantern Burgers
Halloween Dinner Idea Made Easy!
One of the things that I am focused on during Halloween is getting a GOOD dinner on the table for my kids in between the fun at school, going to different places to show off costumes, and out for Trick-or-Treating. There is so much fun going on during the day and planning ahead will help you stay focused on the fun of the day. I love this recipe – super easy, and kid friendly!! There are a few things that I am SURE that my kids will eat all of, and this is one of them. With a little bit of creativity, you can turn a regular family dinner night into a festive and fun Halloween Dinner Idea!

I made this dinner on Halloween when my son was in Kindergarten and it was a HUGE hit! He is in fifth grade now and still talks about those hamburgers 🙂
