Healthy Halloween Food Ideas & Halloween Desserts

A lot of moms and folks are searching for fun and healthy Halloween food ideas right now. How much fun would it be to surprise a kiddo with one of these Halloween-themed chia puddings for breakfast or dessert? I don’t have kids, but I’m kind of a kid at heart. Plus, I love playing with food!

This fun layered chia pudding is one of the eight healthy Halloween snacks I shared recently, but I wanted to give you the exact recipe in case you want to make it for yourself.

How to Make the Colors with Natural Food Coloring

Using all-natural food coloring is super duper important to me. I wouldn’t be surprised if the fake stuff was partially the reason I got cancer (read more about my story here), and I’m not interested in having it come back. So, that’s the driving force of why I try to eat as few fake foods as possible anymore.

In order to add the natural food coloring to the layers, I found these special white chia seeds that seemed to absorb the color really well, as opposed to regular black chia seeds.

I also found this company that makes all-natural, plant-based food dyes! I am so in love with this product and used it to make the orange layer. Or, you can get yourself some dried turmeric and dried beet powder to make the orange layer, too! For the black layer, I used activated charcoal powder. I was so excited to have success using all-natural products. Yay!

Steps to Make This Healthy Halloween Treat:

1. To make the black and orange layered pudding, place ¼ cup white chia seeds in two glass bowls.
2. Add the food coloring (orange in one, black in the other) to each bowl and then pour the almond milk on top. Use two separate spoons to gently mix the ingredients together.
3. Add the honey or maple syrup and stir again.
4. Let the chia pudding sit for at least 10 minutes before giving it another stir. The pudding will continue to thicken over time.
5. Carefully layer the pudding into small glass jars.
6. Serve cold or at room temperature.
