MONSTER TOES (BREAKFAST/BRUNCH VERSION)
For those familiar with the Monster Toes made from the cocktail franks (a la Recipe #140284), you know what's going on here. A wonderful treat for Halloween, these take your usual food and switch it up with a creepy presentation! While I enjoy the cocktail frank version, as well, I often host a Halloween brunch, so it made sense to switch it up to a breakfast version! I have successfully used the vegetarian sausage links in this recipe (as pictured).

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 350°F.
- Prepare the sausage according to package directions.
- Meanwhile, cut each flour tortilla into 10 thin strips.
- Halve the sausage links when they are done cooking.
- Leaving the rounded edge of the sausage link visible, begin wrapping about 1/3 of the way down from this edge with a tortilla strip. Wrap "messily," not all on top of itself, so that it looks like a mummy bandage.
- Pin the tortilla strip in place using a toothpick through the tortilla and sausage.
- Bake about 5 minutes.
- Remove "toes" from oven and immediately stick an almond into the top of the rounded edge of the sausage link, as though it was a creepy, broken toenail.
- Enjoy! They are good plain or with some maple syrup for dipping!

Steps:
- In large bowl, stir cookie mix, flour, melted butter, egg, almond extract and green food color until soft dough forms. Cover; refrigerate 1 hour.
- Meanwhile, place almonds and red food color in resealable food-storage plastic bag; shake bag until almonds are evenly coated with food color. Place on paper plate or waxed paper to dry. Set aside.
- Heat oven to 375°F. For each cookie, roll heaping teaspoonful of dough into 2 1/2-inch finger shape. On ungreased cookie sheets, place shapes 2 inches apart.
- Press almond, colored side up, into one end of each "toe" to look like toenail. About 1 inch from each end of each "toe," squeeze dough slightly; with knife, gently make lines in dough to look like knuckles.
- Bake 6 to 8 minutes or until set. (Cookies should not brown along edges.) Cool 1 minute; remove from cookie sheets to cooling racks. Cool completely, about 15 minutes.

Tips:
- Use fresh, high-quality ingredients: Using fresh, high-quality ingredients will ensure that your Monster Toes are delicious and flavorful. Look for fresh carrots, celery, onions, and bell peppers. You can also use your favorite cheese blend or your favorite type of cooked sausage.
- Don't overcook the vegetables: The vegetables should be cooked until they are tender but still have a bit of a crunch. Overcooking them will make them mushy.
- Use a good quality bread: The bread is an important part of this dish. Use a good quality bread that is sturdy enough to hold up to the fillings.
- Be creative with your fillings: You can use any type of fillings you like in your Monster Toes. Some popular fillings include cooked sausage, bacon, eggs, cheese, and vegetables.
- Serve immediately: Monster Toes are best served immediately after they are made. They can be reheated, but they will not be as good as they are when they are fresh.

Monster Toes are a fun and easy breakfast or brunch recipe. They are perfect for a Halloween party or any other special occasion. With a few simple steps, you can create a delicious and festive dish that your family and friends will love. So what are you waiting for? Give Monster Toes a try today!
