Halloween is only ten days away and I wanted to give you a chance to plan your dinner sooner rather than later, so I collected 12 wickedly delicious Vegan Halloween dinner recipes for you to chew on while you decide what you’re going to make.

When my kids were little they couldn’t wait for Halloween to get here. My son started planning his costumes (yes, he always ended up with more than one) the minute that the costume stores started advertising their wares. Which was usually at the end of August. And Alex and her friends loved to get dressed up together and take the neighborhood by storm. The excitement on that day was palpable, and it took every creative bone in my body to come up with a meal that would make them want to take a minute to sit down and eat something healthy before they headed out the door.

If your kids are anything like mine were, and I’m willing to bet that they are, you know that you have to make dinner fun, exciting, a little spooky, and it needs to taste good. To make your life easier, and healthier, here are twelve festive, colorful, Halloween themed dinner ideas from some of my favorite vegan bloggers that will entice your kids and lure them to the dinner table.
