Spider Deviled Eggs! I mean, come on, are they not so cute? And what a fun way to dress up an appetizer to make it great for a Halloween party. I loved making this one, and let the kids help peel the eggs and assemble the spiders on top, but I did just about everything else. So, this is not the best activity if you want to do it with kids. But, it tastes great!
I used the Deviled Egg recipe I had on here a few weeks ago. But, if you have a favorite deviled egg recipe, use it. Then garnish with the olives to make it Halloween themed. Otherwise, this is a simple, and tasty option!

The book I recommend for this fun activity is: How Spider Saved Halloween
This is a darling story with a lady bug, a fly, and spider. Some bullies try to ruin Halloween, and the spider devises a plan to save it. It is sweet, full of great moral lessons, and the kids love it.
