I think it’s pretty apparent by now that I LOVE the holidays, and especially Halloween. There are so many fun traditions and activities associated with the holiday, and my entire family loves all that comes with it!! From pumpkin carving to creepy recipes, we try to get in as much fun as possible and are sure to have at least a few Halloween parties to attend.
Recently, we used some Flatout products to make some spooky but delicious Halloween recipes. We wanted to think of some simple, tasty and festive recipes that would be perfect for Halloween night. On that night, the entire family gathers at grandma and grandpa’s house, and we have dinner and trick or treat with all the cousins. Trying to think of a few recipes that ALL the cousins love can get tricky, but fortunately all of them love quesadillas and pizza (I mean, what kids don’t right?!) With that in mind, we came up with a Mummy Pizza and some Pumpkin Quesadillas that are not only adorable but perfect for the entire family on Halloween. In fact, these would be great any night in October and will be a hit with your kids! Both are simple, require minimal ingredients and are so yummy. Here is what you’ll need to make these festive recipes…

Flatout Halloween
Ingredients
Pumpkin Quesadilla
- 6 Foldit® Artisan Flatbread
- 4 oz mozzarella cheese or monterrey jack (thinly sliced)
- 4 oz cheddar cheese thinly sliced
Mummy Pizza
- 3 Flatout Light Original
- 1/2 cup pizza sauce
- 1/4 cup grated parmesan cheese
- 6 sliced pepperoni more if desired for under the strips of string cheese
- 3 black olives cut in half
- 6 string cheese pulled into thin strips
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 425 degrees.
Pumpkin Quesadilla
- For the pumpkin: Using a sharp paring knife, cut a pumpkin face into one side of each flatbread. Reserve the larger pieces to create stems (if desired).
- Place a layer of monterey jack or mozzarella on the opposite side of the flatbread (the one without the face cut into it). Then layer with cheddar cheese. Fold the flatbread so that the cheddar is showing through the pumpkin face. Place in the oven and bake for 3-5 minutes. Remove and gently press on the face so that the cheese oozes through the cutouts. Serves 6.
Mummy Pizza
- Microwave pepperoni on a microwave safe plate lined with paper towels for 15 seconds or bake for 5 minutes. Dab grease off.
- Spread the sauce over the flatbreads, leaving a small border. Sprinkle with parmesan cheese. Add pepperoni, place two in the enter towards the top. Add olives on top. Lay strips of string cheese over top. Place in the oven and bake for 3-5 minutes. Serves 6.
Any variety of Flatout Flatbread works great for the pizza, but we used the Light Original. You can also use any of their Artisan Thin Pizza crusts, which the kids love as well.
To make all you need to do is:
- Microwave pepperoni on a microwave safe plate lined with paper towels for 15 seconds or bake for 5 minutes. Dab grease off.
- Spread the sauce over the flatbreads, leaving a small border. Sprinkle with parmesan cheese. Add pepperoni, place two in the enter towards the top. Add olives on top. Lay strips of string cheese over top. Place in the oven and bake for 3-5 minutes.
So simple and the result is amazing!! A super cute Mummy Pizza that the whole family will love!
How could the kids not love this spooky recipe?!
It’s perfect for Halloween!!
For the Pumpkin Quesadillas, we used the Foldit Traditonal White, but again, any Flatout Foldit works well for this.
To make the pumpkin:
- Using a sharp paring knife, cut a pumpkin face into one side of each flatbread. Reserve the larger pieces to create stems (if desired).
- Place a layer of monterey jack or mozzarella on the opposite side of the flatbread (the one without the face cut into it). Then layer with cheddar cheese. Fold the flatbread so that the cheddar is showing through the pumpkin face.
- Place in the oven and bake for 3-5 minutes. Remove and gently press on the face so that the cheese oozes through the cutouts.
So many fun pumpkin faces you can make for these Pumpkin Quesadillas.
These quesadillas are another fun and simple recipe that the kids will go nuts over!
