Ingredients

1 large fresh cauliflower
2 radishes, bulbs with root left on
2 pimento stuffed olives
1 banana pepper, slice
1 slice purple onion
1 cup your favorite vegetable dip

Steps:

Wash cauliflower.
Cut florets from the top of the cauliflower until you have a cauliflower 'bowl'.
Remove greens from bottom. Cut stems from radishes, leave the root which will look like an optic nerve, and remove skin but leave a little to resemble blood shot eyes/veins.
Hollow out the cut end of the radish with the tip of a knife so to stuff with olive. Use a toothpick to hold everything together.
Line your "bowl" with aluminum foil or a clear cling wrap so dip doesn't escape.
Fill cauliflower with dip, garnish with radish 'eyes', pepper nose and onion mouth, and serve with veggies and crackers.

Number Of Ingredients 4

Ingredients

2 avocados
½ cup prepared salsa
1 head cauliflower
6 thin slices red and blue fruit leather

Steps:

Slice the avocados in half. Remove the seeds and set aside. Scoop the avocado out of the skin into a bowl. Mash with a fork or whisk and stir in the salsa. Set aside. Slice off one side of each pit to make it flat and expose the cores of the pits. They will look like eyes.
Remove all of the leaves from the cauliflower and remove the stem, leaving a nice hollow area with the outer part of the head intact. Use toothpicks to hold it together if it starts to fall apart.
Place the cauliflower into a small bowl, so that the hollow is facing upwards and most of the cauliflower is up out of the bowl. The bowl is just for stability. Fill with the avocado dip and arrange the pits as eyes. Decorate the white ''brain'' by weaving thin strands of red and blue fruit leather between the florets to make veins and arteries. I wrap the bowl with cheesecloth and decorate with red food coloring to make it even more horrific!
