Halloween Candy

I love my husband, but every time we go to the store, he sees the Halloween candy and migrates toward it. "One bag of candy corn, pleasepleasepleeeeeaasse?" But this happens once a week or so, and it is still a few weeks until Halloween. He is a grown man and makes his decisions and I make my own, but I was wondering- does anyone have a favorite Halloween themed snack that is healthy? I saw a Pinterest post with banana "ghosts" and clementine "pumpkins" which was cute, but it made me wonder about other ideas. I want to make something fun to have that I can turn to for snacking and maybe tempt my husband a little too...

    I like candy corn. No vegetables or fruit compare to candy corn. As far as healthy Halloween treats go, the only thing I make that's not super sugary or fattening is popcorn balls.

    Sugar free gummy bears. They have a certain... feedback loop... which makes it easy to practice moderation with them.

    No advice, really, sigh.

    I'm already preparing myself with a nightly mantra before bed time..."it is NOT ok to steal candy from the kids treat bags when there are school. It is NOT ok.., not ok..."

    Have you seen the reviews for them on Amazon? (I'm pretty sure that's what it was) It was about the feedback loop you mentioned. After reading the comments I decided to avoid them altogether. You are right, knowing what it can do will make you practice moderation.

    Why is your husband begging for the candy?

    I have a terrible weakness for the little chocolate bars, especially Butterfingers. They are not allowed in the house except Halloween night. My indulgence is real molasses kisses. Kerr's makes them, and sometimes Crosby's. These are made with lots of molasses and not those plastic ones you see at Walmart, etc.

    Nope no suggestions, I love my candy corn and won't give that up for anything. Plus I don't need to have a lot to get my fix and it is only out one time a year so yeah I'm all for candy corn...in moderation and if it fits of course....well dang now I have to go buy myself a bag lol

    Hahaha well I try to avoid getting tempting things with my diet but don't really stop him from getting what he wants. The begging was inferred from his "puppy dog eyes putting the bag in the cart knowing that my wife is calorie counting" look.



    Oh well. Moderation is being put to the test hehe. *Logs the candy corn she just had*

    I went onto my Pinterest Halloween board and lo and behold found this (which I have no idea why I would have pinned it because it doesn't look good to me at all!)

    I also found this, which does look really good to me... and won't likely meet your definition of healthy Halloween treats but there might be others on here that would be interested!

    I've been making granola lately. Currently working on a pumpkin / apple spice variant which is autumnal if not exactly Halloween-y. It's great to be able to control the amount and type of sugar, and you can strike a pretty good balance between tastiness and healthiness if you play around with the recipe. I'll be happy to share some of my tips.

    Not "healthy" but I love Cadbury screme eggs, 150 cal of super sugary rich creamy deliciousness and sold individually so I don't have a big bag of mini Snickers (or whatever else) taunting me for weeks.

    Luckily I am not into candy corn.

    We don't buy Halloween candy aside from the above. We live on the edge of a high end neighborhood where most people go all out, but in our block it's a lot of seniors and singles and everyone leaves their lights out. I love it, haha.

    it ain't candy but pumpkin curry soup is delish and not fattening. I got the recipe I use off of pumpkinnook.com. They have everything pumpkin related (including not so healthy baked goods lol).

    I would love that! I like granola a lot and have always wanted to try making some at home. Thanks!

    Out of sight. Out of mind. I'm glad I don't have sugar cravings that often. (Kits Kats are my go-to if I do get a craving) :happy:

    I think it's great that they have started making Cadbury Eggs for sale around Halloween time. Once a year just wasn't enough. I get one once a week when I get groceries. Only 150 calories and stems the craving for awhile.

    For a healthier treat, how about a caramel apple? Or just eat the candy corn and practice the often talked about but occasionally hard to achieve, skill of moderation.

    Sugar free gummy bears. They have a certain... feedback loop... which makes it easy to practice moderation with them.
    feedback loop :laugh:

    OP, I've seen the post on pinterest you're referring too. If you hunt around, you may find a pin titled "Halloween Snacks that don't involve candy", I forget what the actual pin looks like, but it will link you to a page with all kinds of festive foods.

    Or you could take a healthier dessert recipe (something from chocolatecoveredkatie, maybe) and garnish it with some seasonal candies, then you get something a little healthy and a little traditional

    I love the Pioneer Woman and that bark looks yummy. Probably can substitute a few ingredients to make it lower in salt/fat/sugar. Nice find!

    These have peanut butter - and that's healthy, right?

    I started here: http://www.daringgourmet.com/2013/04/29/healthy-homemade-granola/

    And then started adjusting until I came up with a pretty reliable recipe.

    Unfortunately, it's all in my head right now, so let me see if I can write it all down, then I'll post it here..
