Most everything Halloween-related in the food world involves copious amounts of sugar, cheese, or ranch dressing. If you type “healthy Halloween” into google, you get results for oranges cut to look like jack-o-lanterns and salads with no dressing. Call me a cynic, but a banana with a face made from three chocolate chips shoved into it doesn’t thrill me. Obviously, I’m not suggesting that someone eat everything listed below in one sitting. My hope is that these are choices people might realistically eat and enjoy…
