13 Reviews of Halloween Rats Baked in Blood

After I saw this "rat" recipe I knew the kids would like it. I served it over a bed of spaghetti and took a few pieces of spaghetti from the boiling water after a few minutes. I curled them like a tail and added them to the oven while the rats were cooking. This dinner got a lot of "oohs" and "aahs" when I brought it to the table. This is the perfect dish to serve at Halloween time and I will be making it next year also.

    Everybody thought it was such a cute idea. The only thing I noticed was that the rats were a bit dry and tough. I followed the recipe but it seemed I might have done something off? But I will try this recipe again one day and try to improve the technique.

    This was so fun tonight. My kids thought I'd gone round the bend, but they loved it.

    Great idea! Unfortunately I ended up with hedgehogs instead of rats due to the rice (Basmati)sticking out in all directions (lol) it was great fun though.

    I made the mice with my own meatball recipe as I was making them anyway. I put them on top of my baked ziti that I took to a halloween engagement party.Very cute the only thing I changed was I used slivered almonds for the ears. Marg
