Halloween Mummy Celery Sticks

Step away from the candy. There’s a new low-carb treat in town and it’s called Halloween Mummy Celery Sticks.

Halloween Mummy Celery Sticks (low-carb)

While this recipe doesn’t require a ton of ingredients, it does require patience and practice. Don’t attempt them on a day when you’re feeling extremely stressed out.

Make sure your turkey is shaved as thinly as possible before you start. Trust me, it will save you some frustration.

And, while I love cooking with my 4-year-old niece, I’m really glad I didn’t attempt making these mummies with her. She did enjoy eating them, though.

Ingredients

  • 1 tablespoon Penzey’s Fox Point seasoning or other herb, onion, and garlic blend
  • 2 tablespoons water
  • 8 ounces cream cheese softened
  • 3 ounces shaved or thinly sliced deli turkey breast
  • 10 dried cranberries craisins
  • 20 celery stalks cut into 3-inch pieces

Instructions

  • In a small bowl, combine seasoning and water. Add cream cheese and mix well.
  • Cut turkey into narrow strips that are just a little bit wider than your celery sticks.
  • Cut cranberries into small eye-sized pieces, about 4 per cranberry.
  • Place cream cheese mixture into a zipper-top plastic bag and snip off one corner. Pipe into each celery stick.
  • Criss-cross turkey strips on top of cream cheese. Trim any edges that overhang. Use a small, flat spatula to tuck in the sides.
  • Add cranberry “eyes.”

Recipe Notes

Time-saving tip: Buy cream cheese that is already flavored, like Garden Vegetable or Chive and Onion and skip the first step.
