Fall is right around the corner, and with it comes some of my favorite things: cooler temps, oversized sweatshirts, and pumpkin-spiced everything. Fall also brings Halloween, which is one of my favorite holidays!
I’m on a couple of Fall tennis leagues, and I’m so fortunate to have teammates who love Halloween as much as I do. When we host the home matches during the week of Halloween, we celebrate with a ghoulish spread of themed treats and snacks.
Every home match, we typically have some sort of cheese and cracker combo, but this Zombie Brain Cheese Ball takes it to a whole new level! While it may look creepy on the outside, it is full of delicious flavor on the inside!
The base is a delicious pesto and Parmesan flavored cheese ball that is topped with a smooth feta cheese mixture which is piped on to look like brains.
Then, the whole thing is centered in a bright red pool of sun-dried tomato sauce that adds a bold, garlicky punch.
Not only is this easy to make, but you can prepare it in advance, which means you don’t have to get up at the crack of dawn on the day of your match in order to get the cheese ball and/or your kids, AND you ready!
And I guarantee it will get plenty of ooooooo’s and ahhhhhhhh’s at your Halloween home match!
