Time 45m

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 7

Ingredients

2 medium russet potatoes
4 teaspoons olive oil
1 teaspoon dried Italian seasoning
4 teaspoons grated Parmesan cheese
12 frozen cooked meatballs (such as Johnsonville®), thawed
4 (1 ounce) sticks string cheese sticks, pulled into thin strips
8 candy eyeballs

Steps:

Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C).
Pierce potatoes with a fork and microwave for 10 minutes. Let cool until safe to handle. Cut in half lengthwise and scoop out most of the flesh, leaving 1/2 inch around the shell. Discard flesh or save for another use.
Place potato halves cut-side down on a baking sheet. Rub each half with 1 teaspoon olive oil. Flip potatoes over. Sprinkle each with 1/4 teaspoon Italian seasoning and 1 teaspoon Parmesan cheese.
Bake in the preheated oven until shells are crisp, 12 to 15 minutes.
Meanwhile, place meatballs on microwave-safe plates. Cover with paper towels. Microwave until hot, 70 to 75 seconds per batch. Let rest until cool enough to not melt the cheese.
Wrap 1/4 of the cheese strings around 3 meatballs to create a mummy effect. Repeat with remaining cheese and meatballs.
Remove potato skin coffins from the oven and place a mummy in each coffin. Apply candy eyeballs.

Time 50m

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 13

Ingredients

cooking spray
1 pound lean ground beef
½ cup minced onion
⅓ cup gingersnap cookie crumbs
¼ cup water
½ teaspoon salt
¼ teaspoon ground black pepper
2 cups beef broth
½ cup gingersnap cookie crumbs
2 tablespoons gingersnap cookie crumbs, or more as needed
½ cup apple cider vinegar
1 tablespoon white sugar, or more to taste
3 tablespoons raisins

Steps:

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Line a baking sheet with aluminum foil and place a baking rack on top. Spray the rack with cooking spray.
Combine ground beef, onion, gingersnap crumbs, water, salt, and pepper in a medium bowl. Shape into 24 meatballs using a tablespoon-sized cookie scoop. Place the meatballs on the prepared baking rack.
Bake in the preheated oven until a meat thermometer inserted into the center of a meatball reads 160 degrees F (71 degrees C), 18 to 20 minutes.
While the meatballs are baking, whisk beef broth, 1/2 cup plus 2 tablespoons gingersnap crumbs, vinegar, and sugar together in a medium saucepan. Cook over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until gravy thickens, 5 to 10 minutes. Add more gingersnap crumbs for a thicker gravy, or some water for a thinner consistency.
Stir cooked meatballs and raisins into the gravy. Cover and simmer until flavors combine, about 10 minutes.
