Our family absolutely loves Halloween! It’s the perfect time to have a little fun—and play with your food! (Although our kids would definitely say it’s really all about the candy.)

We love hosting friends before and after trick-or-treating, and there’s one dish my kids request every single year.

Just for the occasion, we “spookified” our Festive Deviled Eggs to look like creepy-cute eyeballs! This time, we swapped in our Hot Banana Pepper Mustard instead of the Champagne Mustard for an extra kick.
