Yes, Halloween – The Movie! Movies, actually…

… all of them! Starting tomorrow, I will be doing a Halloween Marathon, one movie a night, in anticipation of the newest version set to be in theaters in October.

And because I am Themebelina, I decided that what’s better than dinner and a movie??? A themed dinner and movie. Each evening for dinner during my marathon, I will be making a pumpkin-based entree. Here is my menu:

Day 1 Movie: Halloween  Dinner: Shredded Chicken Rice Stuffed Peppers  http://www.everydayjenny.com/shredded-chicken-rice-stuffed-peppers-halloween-style/

Okay, technically this entree is not pumpkin-based, but I will serve them in orange bell peppers cut out like a jack-o-lantern. Plus, I will be having pumpkin martinis!

Day 2 Movie: Halloween II Dinner: Savory Pumpkin Pizza  http://lovelolablog.com/savory-pumpkin-pizza-aka-the-best-pizza-you-will-ever-eat-ever/

Day 3 Movie: Halloween III: Season of the Witch  Dinner: Pork Scaloppini in white wine sauce over homemade pumpkin pasta http://www.gardenandtable.net/pork-scaloppini-in-white-wine-sauce-over-handmade-pumpkin-pasta-free-recipe-below/

If I can’t talk my hubby into making the homemade pasta (since he will be making the pizza dough the night before), I will use some fun Casa Milo Rainbow Pasta that has shapes that look like pumpkins.

Day 4 Movie: Halloween 4: The Return of Michael Myers  Dinner: Pumpkin Chili https://www.simplystacie.net/2012/09/pumpkin-chili-recipe/

Day 5 Movie: Halloween 5: The Revenge of Michael Myers Dinner: Chickpea Pumpkin Coconut Curry  https://www.emilieeats.com/chickpea-pumpkin-coconut-curry-vegan/

Here is the table setting I put together…        

My favorite pieces are the martini glasses!

I also love the plates that were in my husband’s family – we only have 3 dinner plates, but can buy more on Amazon. The bowls are from Pier 1 Imports.

My daughter loves the mini pumpkin salt and pepper shakers!

Don’t forget to get the Halloween movie complete collection!

 

Happy Halloween and Bon Appetit!
