FISH STICK MUMMY RECIPE
To make this spook-tacular recipe, here is what I used:
1 package of 18 count Gorton’s Fish Sticks
2 Sliced of White Cheese (I used white cheddar)
Mustard (for the eyes)
Toothpick to dab on the mustard eyes or you can use your mustard bottle.
Prepare the Fish Sticks according to package directions. Mine were done in 12-14 minutes on 425° F. When they are done cooking and you have removed them from the oven, leave the oven on still.
To mummify your fish sticks. Cut each piece of cheese in half and then slice into thin strings. Once your fish sticks are out of the oven, quickly add layers of the cheese leaving a little empty spot for the eyes. After the cheese is loaded on, place back in the oven and watch very closely. We want the cheese to melt and form around the fish sticks. This should take no longer than 1 minute, so don't walk away from the oven. it's a quick process.
Once your wonderful mummy cheese has melted, quickly add "eyes" using mustard. You can squirt dabs on directly with your mustard bottle but for more control, you can use a toothpick to dot the eyes on like I did.
Voila! That is it! Now you have a hauntingly tasty snack to serve up!
Serve these cute mummies with your favorite dipping sauces like tartar sauce, ranch dressing or ketchup.

Well that looks like it's fun to do. I love creative stuff like this. My kiddo would goblet down as quickly as he could. They are so cute.
I LOVE these! I don't often see a Halloween-themed dinner idea like this. Sweets are fine, but it's nice to see a Halloween recipe that isn't chocolate or candy.
These are awesome! We love fish sticks with ketchup which is perfect for this. Because, you know, blood. Spoooookkkyyyyyy.
