These creepy sensory bowls make for edible, interactive fun perfectly suited for the Halloween season. In this case, it’s okay to play with your food.
You’ll need:
• Chia seeds
• Spaghetti or spaghetti squash
• Food coloring
For your Alien Eggs… Combine ¼ cup chia seeds with 1 cup water and 5–7 drops of green food coloring (or more, depending on how vibrant you want the color) in a sealable container. If you want a thicker, slime-like consistency, add a sprinkle of cornstarch to the mix. Let them sit for several hours or overnight until the mix forms a gel-like consistency. Once the seeds have absorbed the liquid, you’ve got Alien Eggs ready for sensory exploration.
For your Zombie Brains… Cook your spaghetti or squash as you usually would. Divide the cooked spaghetti into different bowls and add food coloring to each to dye them different colors. Mix them all together after they’re dyed to make a colorful, scary dish!
