How to Make Pumpkin Snack
Step 1: The first thing you want to do is make the triangle eyes. Then create a smiley face in the lower part of the platter. You just want to use any round platter.
Step 2: Now add little pieces of carrots, chips, cheese slices, and other orange-colored foods. Then shape it around the eyes and smiley face to create the jack o lantern look.
See how simple and easy this idea is!
What Type of Tray to Use
I used a pizza stone for this recipe. Reach for any circle tray to serve up your snack. You could even do a square-shaped it just won’t be as pumpkin looking at the end of it.
Feel free to improvise and do what you want with what you have. I personally just used a stone cause it was what I had on hand. You don’t really see it until the food begins to disappear.
What to Serve With Tray
Reach for any type of dip, whether it be a savory or dessert dip. Or you can pair with other appetizers so it could be like a finger food snacking option.
