The theme for Muffin Tin Monday is pumpkins this week. I have been brainstorming for about a week to come up with ideas for this tin.
- Idea One: I found this idea for the pumpkin fruit salad and knew it was right up JDaniel’s alley.
- Idea Two: I could make grilled cheese sandwiches and carve a face in the bread. After the first cut I realized that this was not going to work. The cheese was cemented to the bread. The sandwiches still ended up in the tin minus the cute faces I planned to put in them.
- Idea Three: There are tons of great recipes that have pumpkin in them. I could try one of them and put it in the tin. There were no cans of pumpkin on the shelves at the two stores I went to.
- Idea Four: Take something and make it look like a pumpkin. I took several peach slices and put them in a pumpkin shaped array. A raisin was placed on the top of them to look like a stem.
- Idea Five: Place something orange in the tin and call it a day. I found some carrots in the fridge and added them to the tin with a cup of ranch dressing to dip them in.

You’re just so creative!! I love what you came up with!
Great orange!
I almost did the same thing with the carrots: orange, vegetable, good enough!
Thats a great tin, I love the carved orange 🙂
Great tin. I guess great minds think a like! Happy MTM!
I was at a loss for ideas. You came up with some great ones! As long as the children enjoy the meal you did good.
I love the whole thing. I did the orange pumpkins once, my kids loved them – I should do them again!!!
This was a hard theme for me too. I love the orange fruit salad. That would make a super fun snack just by itself.
It’s a great tin! I especially love the orange jack o lantern- very cute.
After reading this, the first thing that came to mind…try, try again!
Way cute pumpkin!
Great tin! No question. The orange caught my eye right away. Anyway the pumpkin shaped sandwiches technically fit the theme seeing as is was pumpkins. 🙂
So cute! I’d like to dig into that lunch.
I love what you did with the orange super cute
I would have had to go with carrots!
Very clever and cute!
Fun ideas!
The carrots weren’t a pumpkin but they were orange! 🙂
