Halloween Castle Bento

Today is a Halloween blog hop! If you're looking for some fun ideas for Halloween food, you're in the right place!

This lunch is for my husband, and I made a haunted Halloween enchilada casserole - on the bottom is a blue corn tortilla, then ground beef, enchilada sauce, cheese, then black "forbidden rice" on top. The haunted castle is cut freehand from another blue corn tortilla, with details made of cheese. The ghost is mozzarella cheese ( with face cut from a coffee stir straw), the pumpkins are carrots, and there's a little black cat cut from an olive. I could not have made this bento without this very handy Halloween linzer cookie cutter set:

The side dishes are black grapes, pomegranate kernels, cucumber, tomatoes, and bacon wrapped asparagus (the bacon is my favorite - turkey bacon from Trader Joe's, with no nitrites or preservatives - it's so good!).
