These cool sandwiches not only look fun, the kids will enjoy eating them. They are loaded with a delicious tuna salad mix made with water chestnuts, and topped with cream cheese and olives. It is a special dish for Halloween that the kids will love year-round.

Prep Time: 20 minutes

Ingredients:

  • 2 (8-ounce) cans white tuna, packed in water
  • 3 Tablespoons mayonnaise or plain yogurt
  • 1 (8-ounce) can water chestnuts, sliced
  • 1/2 teaspoon curry powder
  • 1 Tablespoon honey mustard
  • 20 slices wheat bread, crusts removed
  • Whipped cream cheese
  • Black olive slices for garnish

Preparation:

Mix the tuna, mayonnaise, water chestnuts, curry powder, and mustard in a medium bowl.

Cut the bread slices with a cookie cutter in the shape of gingerbread men. Spread 10 slices with the tuna mixture and cover each with a second slice of bread. Now spread the top of each "spook" with cream cheese. Use two slices of olives to make eyes on each.

Yield: 10 sandwiches
