Zombie Brain Dip
Ingredients:
Guacamole
1/2 cup red salsa
1 head cauliflower
Blue and red food coloring
Directions:
- Either make your own guacamole or get the store-bought stuff (which I prefer for parties, as it doesn't brown as fast as homemade).
- In a small bowl, mix in the salsa with the guacamole.
- Take the cauliflower head and remove the leaves and main stalk, which should leave a nice hollow area to place your guac/salsa mixture.
- Use toothpicks to hold it together if it starts to fall apart.
- Use toothpicks and red and blue food coloring to paint "veins" onto the brainy-looking cauliflower.
- You can either plate the cauliflower like the photo above, or you can place the cauliflower in a small bowl for stability.
- Fill the cauliflower with the guac/salsa dip, dribble a little salsa around for blood and voila...brain dip fit for hungry zombies!
You could also just use a mix of salsa and cream cheese or sour cream (there are vegan versions of these too!) if you wanted a bloody brains look.
That's awesome! I never knew cauliflower could look so fantastically gross XD
