#115: Pumpkin Shaped Pumpkin Buns
I was originally going to finish off our spooktacular month with a sweet pumpkin bread recipe for this week and shape it into a Jack o’ Lantern, but then I remembered that pumpkin bread is more of a cake recipe in that it’s initially a batter rather than a dough before baking. So, obviously that…

#114: Creepy Grub Pasta (Spinach & Ricotta-Stuffed Pumpkin Gnocchi in Sage Butter Sauce)
I had seen a recipe for gnocchi a few months ago and I thought the shape looked a lot like a grub, so that gave me an idea to think of a fun recipe to do for spooktob3r. I wasn’t quite sure how to make it look more like a grub, but I wasn’t the…

#113: Monster Soup
Ever since we made some recipes from the Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild and Tears of the Kingdom for this channel, I’ve been really wanting to make the more exotic recipes that weren’t already real recipes in real life, and one of the first ones I wanted to make was the monster soup.…

#112: Monster Apple Slices
For our first Spooky recipe for this year, I thought it would be fun to start with another simple and easy-to-make treat that you can make with your kids during this halloween season. Because of knives being sharp, I would probably have the adults or older kids do the first step of cutting the apples,…

#12: The Custard Out of Space
So to finish off this month of making spooky recipes, I thought that a sweet dessert would be a perfect dish to end on. There were a lot of options to pick from in the Necronomnomnom, but this one seemed like the simplest one to do. Specifically in terms of the dish’s origins, the monster…

#11: Vegemitey Cthulhu
So with this recipe, I chose to do this one because of its monstrous origins. Cthulhu, of course, is a Great Old One described by Lovecraft as “A monster of vaguely anthropoid outline, but with an octopus-like head whose face was a mass of feelers, a scaly, rubbery-looking body, prodigious claws on hind and fore…

#10: The Grape Old Wons
So with this recipe, I was initially intrigued by it because of its interesting shape and use of ingredients. I was a bit confused about why they used grapes in the recipe and wanted to see what it tasted like. But I thought that the sweetness of the grapes would taste weird with the rest…

#9: The Fishes From Outside
So with this book, the Necronomnomnom, I actually bought it mainly for this dish. I had bought some whole fish that I was going to use for an episode for this show, but I never got around to looking for a recipe to make something with them. But, when I found this book, the first…

#8: Cultists in Robes
So I was at a bookstore a couple of weeks ago, and found this really cool cookbook called the Necronomnomnom. It has a bunch of cool looking recipes inspired by the works of H. P. Lovecraft and I thought that it would be fun to do some of the recipes for the month of October.…
