Tomorrow is Halloween! Holy Moly this year went fast!! We like to have a creepy meal while we wait for the trick or treaters on Halloween night. Here is a creepy dish – serve it with a plate full of worms!!
Halloween Eyeballs –Â
These are so easy to make. All you need is meatballs, olives and pesto. You can serve them as an appetizer with a bone pick – or serve them on a plate of butter spaghetti pasta (worms) with a little extra pesto. Scary and delicious!
I used store bought meatballs. Carefully poke a hole that goes halfway deep into the meat.
Gently push in an olive so the pimento is showing.
Mold the meatball tight around the olive. It will shrink while it’s cooking so it can go over most of the green part.
Roll the entire meatball in the pesto and
place them on the air fryer rack.
Fry at 375 degrees for 10 to 15 minutes. If they aren’t cooked through, add another five minutes.
Remove from the fryer and serve hot!
An alternative cook method is to bake them at 375 degrees for 20 to 25 minutes.

The meatballs sound delicious and look appropriately gruesome.
Thanks!!
