Ingredients
- 1 - 250 g pkg spaghetti noodles
- 1 - 500 ml jar homemade pasta sauce
- 2 cups ground beef cooked (optional)
- 6-8 bocconcini cheese balls
- Black olives sliced
Instructions
- In a large pot, cook noodles according to package directions, until al dente. Drain thoroughly.
- Add sauce and meat to the cooked spaghetti. Stir to combine.
- Plate the spaghetti, add several bocconcini, and top with olive slices to create “eyes”.
Notes
- For an extra creepy twist, add 20–25 drops of food coloring to your boiling pasta water. Green or purple noodles are perfect for a Halloween night dinner.
- To create individual servings of eyeball spaghetti for a Halloween party, portion out your pasta and sauce into small bowls, then top each serving with one large eyeball or three small eyeballs. You could even make mini eyeball skewers!
- Save time by using jarred marinara sauce and frozen meatballs.
- Chill the bocconcini in cold water before assembling. This helps them hold their shape during a long Halloween party.
- Drizzle a little olive oil over the eyeballs so they stay shiny and creepy instead of drying out.
- Mix in some Halloween pasta shapes with the spaghetti for hidden surprises in every bite.
