With the help of this spooky treat guide, it\u2019s fun to make and enjoy low-carb, low-sugar treats.<\/p>\n<p><\/span><br \/>\n<span class=\"art\"><span>apple bites: <\/span>Quarter and core an apple, cut a wedge from the skin side of each quarter, spread with peanut butter, then press slivered almonds in place for teeth. Baste the apples with orange juice to keep them from browning. Use sunflower or pumpkin seed butter for a nut-free option.<br \/>\n<\/span><br \/>\n<span class=\"art\"><span>banana ghosts: <\/span>Press three chocolate chips (two for the eyes, one for the mouth) into half of a peeled banana so that they resemble a ghost face.<br \/>\n<\/span><br \/>\n<span class=\"art\"><span>orange jack-o\u2019-lanterns: <\/span>Use Mandarins, clementines or full size oranges. Draw a face with a black permanent marker (it won\u2019t penetrate the skin so the fruit won\u2019t be contaminated). It\u2019s fun for children to see how scary or funny they can make the jack-o\u2019-lantern\u2019s face.<br \/>\n<\/span><br \/>\n<span class=\"art\"><span>spooky cheese slices: <\/span>Cut slices of Swiss, Cheddar or colby cheese into spooky shapes using Halloween cookie cutters.<br \/>\n<\/span><br \/>\n<span class=\"art\"><span>finger food: <\/span>With a paring knife, cut a flat, shallow notch in the tip of a baby carrot. Then use a dab of softened cream cheese to \u201cglue\u201d a sliced-almond \u201cfingernail\u201d atop each notch. Cut in a few more notches to shape a knuckle. Serve with your favorite vegetable dip. Use this same cutting technique with a piece of string cheese.<br \/>\n<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Healthy Halloween Treats Halloween can be ghoulish for people on a diabetic meal plan.
