It is far-away, and in a park, so I needed something that would be very portable, and good cold.\u00a0 I also wanted something savory and vegetarian, because there&#8217;s always tons of meat and sweets at these things. Though I may experiment with a few more ideas, so far, testing is positive for these little ghosties.\u00a0 I used a 4&#8243; ghost cookie-cutter, so these are a perfect snack size. They are also tasty.<\/p>\n<p>Indredients:<\/p>\n<p>2 cans Pilsbury Crescent seamless dough (because making dough is a pain in my ghoulish butt)<br \/>\n1 small green bell pepper finely chopped<br \/>\n1 small red bell pepper, finely chopped<br \/>\n1 small onion, finely chopped<br \/>\n1\/2 potato, finely chopped<br \/>\n2 cloves garlic, minced<br \/>\n1\/2 tsp oregano<br \/>\nOlive oil<br \/>\nSalt &amp; pepper to taste<br \/>\n1\/2 c cream cheese<br \/>\n1 egg<br \/>\n1 tblsp water<br \/>\n1\/2 c cheddar cheese, grated<\/p>\n<p>Toss veggies with salt, pepper, oregano, and a light drizzle of olive oil. Spread on\u00a0 greased cookie sheet and roast at 350\u00b0 for about 20 minutes, until veggies are tender and a little brown on the edges. Dump them in a bowl and mix them with the cream cheese while still warm, so the cream cheese mixes more easily. Set aside.<\/p>\n<p>Roll out your dough, rolling each can separately, to about 1\/8&#8243; thickness.\u00a0 I just tried to get it thin&#8211;the dough is very springy. On one sheet, use your ghost cookie-cutter to lightly score shapes so you know where to put the filling. Put a forkful of filling on each ghost shape, avoiding the edges:<\/p>\n<p><a title=\"ghostroast-score by frykitty, on Flickr\" href=\"http:\/\/www.flickr.com\/photos\/frykitty\/6199860601\/\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"http:\/\/farm7.static.flickr.com\/6174\/6199860601_d36a4fb409_m.jpg\" alt=\"ghostroast-score\" width=\"240\" height=\"180\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>Place second dough sheet over the first, and press around the filling, so you can see where it is when you cut out your shapes:<\/p>\n<p><a title=\"ghostroast-press by frykitty, on Flickr\" href=\"http:\/\/www.flickr.com\/photos\/frykitty\/6199860621\/\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"http:\/\/farm7.static.flickr.com\/6134\/6199860621_9b2bfb670e_m.jpg\" alt=\"ghostroast-press\" width=\"240\" height=\"180\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>Cut out your little ghosties. Mix egg and water in a small bowl, and brush the tops of each ghost lightly but thoroughly.\u00a0 Put a pinch of grated cheddar on top of each ghost.<\/p>\n<p>Place ghosts on ungreased cookie sheet and bake at 375\u00b0 for 12 minutes. Makes about 10 ghosties.<\/p>\n<p>Enjoy!<\/p>\n<p>Now, I know you love my blog, right?
