Simmer up a panful of delicious vegetarian pasta, perfect for warming up with on a cold Halloween night.
Our easy healthy Halloween recipe is a one pot recipe so it’s super easy for cleaning up afterwards – we all love a one pot – don’t we?
I always think it’s nice to balance all the sugar and give the kids a proper Halloween dinner. And kids just love pasta, so this is a great, filling dinner that they’ll just love.
To make the little Jack-o-Lantern serving bowls, get some orange paper cups – the insulated cups for warm drinks work best for this – and draw on a pumpkin face with black felt tip.

The paper cups are really portable too, so the kids can eat the Halloween pasta whilst they’re outdoors too.
