Healthy Jack-O'-Lantern Sandwiches
- 14 cup light mayonnaise
- 14 cup ketchup
- 32 slices whole wheat bread or 32 slices pumpernickel bread
- 16 slices deli ham or 16 slices turkey
- 16 slices low-fat American cheese (orange)
- In a small bowl, whisk together mayonnaise and ketchup.
- Spread some of mayonnaise mixture on one side of 16 of the slices of bread.
- Top each of the 16 slices with ham or turkey, then 1 slice of cheese.
- Top with the remaining slices of toast.
- Use 4-inch pumpkin cookie cutter to cut each sandwich.
- Remove the top slice of toast from each sandwich, then use the tip of a paring knife to cut out eyes, nose and a mouth.
- Place the bread back on the sandwich so the orange cheese shows through the holes.
- Refrigerate until ready to serve.
- Accompaniments: Make mini jack-o'-lanterns by using the tip of a knife to cut eyes, a nose and mouth into the peel of a small orange.
- Cut just deep enough to expose the white pith.
- For bloody fingers, dip baby carrots into a sauce made by mixing ketchup with an Italian seasoning blend and enough cranberry juice to give the sauce a "bloody" consistency.
