Ingredients

Scale

Ingredients

  • 1 orange bell pepper (a purple-black pepper would be great, too)
  • 1 sliced black olive


Instructions

  1. Prepare the Spider’s Body: Cut the bottom off the bell pepper to form the spider’s rounded body shape. This base will be placed on the dip.
  2. Create the Legs: From the remaining sides of the pepper, cut 8 long, slender slices to mimic the spider’s legs.
  3. Make the Eyes: Cut two tiny triangles from the sliced black olive to serve as the spider’s eyes.
  4. Assemble the Spider: Arrange the pepper body and legs on top of your chosen appetizer dip. Place the olive triangle eyes on the body. If needed, use a tiny dab of dip to hold the eyes in place, especially if the pepper surface is slanted.
  5. Serve: Present the spider-decorated dip alongside vegetables or whole-grain crackers for easy dipping and a festive Halloween experience.
