Healthy Halloween Foods
The last thing that most kids want to do on Halloween night is to sit down and eat dinner. I remember when I was a kid, I just wanted to run outside and get started on Trick-or-Treat! My Mom knew that the combination of a kid with an empty stomach running around in the cold, and then filling up on sugar, was a terrible idea which is how this list got started…
