For the spice that you will put onto your chicken, you will need to take one part of your chili powder, ground cumin, garlic powder and onion powder and 1/4 a part of crushed red pepper (the spice).

Mix this together in a bowl and set aside. I used 1 and 1/2 tablespoon of each and a few shakes of the crushed red pepper in ours.

Cook your chicken thoroughly without any seasoning on it. You can do this in a pan or in the oven. After the chicken is cooked, shred it and add the chicken, your seasoning, and some water into a pan and heat it until the water has evaporated from the pan. 

You'll be left with something like this. 

I was all alone and didn't manage to get pics of this part, so I'm using a photo of cheese for this! If you're like us, you're a huge lover of cheese. We added both mozzarella and cheddar along with some of the chicken between two tortillas.

Make sure you are cooking on medium heat so you don't burn your tortilla.

That's right! You're finished. Be sure to make up whatever side you want to have with your quesadillas. We chose Spanish rice, and it was amazing.

I loved making the seasoning on my own, and the hubby said he was a fan, also. The seasoning added a much-needed kick to the dish, and the cheese was ah-mazing!

This took extra dedication to create, because I hate spiders. I'm also not a huge fan of eggs, but I told myself to make these for the hubby.

Deviled eggs already sound pretty gruesome this holiday season, but you can spice them up even more by turning them into spider deviled-eggs.

I know...my attempt looks super bad, but these little treats have the capability to be a super sweet spooky treat. This is a great healthy option for party foods, as well, making it great for kids parts.

All this adorable little monster is made of is apple slices, peanut butter, candy eyes, sunflower seeds, and strawberries.

This simple recipe is one of the easiest things you can make for your get together.

​Just make up your burgers like you normally would, but take some time to cut jack-o-lantern faces into the cheese. These are super cute!

This gruesome guy was delicious and was actually Jonathan's creation! It is just a simple meatloaf with strategically-placed onion slices and ketchup.

I also saw someone take bacon and wrap it around different places to make it look like "skin," so that is also an option for you.

This crowd-pleaser is easy to make and tastes great. All you'll need is two packs of pudding mix, a container of cool whip, and a block of cream cheese.

Prepare the pudding according to its package instructions, then mix the ingredients together and let it chill. For toppings, I recommend crushed up sandwich cookies and some candies that look like headstones, bones, and skulls. 

I also like to add in gummy worms! 

This is yet another very simple treat that you can add to your dinner table or Halloween party dessert table!

These Franked-Rolls are simply Swiss rolls dipped in green chocolate and decorated with candy eyes, candy corn, and sprinkles!

'Tis the season for caramel apples, but you can put a fun twist on this delectable fall treat by letting guest make their own bite-sized caramel apples.

Jonathan and I did this after dinner one night, and he really loved it! If you don't want much mess, you can always make a variety of these before your guests arrive. 

I really tried to make these in the shape of a football, but it was kind of a fail. These are your run-of-the-mill pigs in a blanket. All I did was cut my hot dogs in half and cut my crescent rolls in half. I then rolled the hotdogs up in the crescent rolls and baked them for probably about 5-10 minutes longer than the crescent roll pack indicated.

These mini hotdogs are the perfect finger food for a Saturday night football get-together. I enjoyed mine with some ketchup, but you could also offer mustard and chili and allow your guests to load up their pigs in a blanket any way that you'd like!

Soup is one of my husband's favorite foods, especially my loaded potato soup. This is perfect for those crisp and chilly fall nights!

Even better, it take hardly any work to make. If you have a Crockpot or a slow cooker, you can simply throw all of the ingredients in and give it a stir. After that, you can leave for work, to run errands, or go out for a day of fun in the fall sun.

By the time you get home, your entire house will be smelling like potato! When I made this for the blog, I enjoyed it snuggled under the covers while doing some work on my laptop and watching a show on Netflix with Jonathan! I really hope you enjoy this recipe!

Turkey is one food that come to mind when you think about fall. But, if you want to enjoy it a bit before Thanksgiving, you can try this food.

This meal consisted of premade homestyle meatballs heated in turkey gravy. We then made some mashed potatoes and green beans for the side. Since this is pretty self-explanatory, there is no recipe for it! This is a great, quick meal to make any day of the week!

This monkey bread took a while to make, but it was so delicious! It harnesses all of the flavors of fall (i.e. pumpkin spice and cinnamon) to create this mouth-watering beauty right here.

One thing to note about this is that it is very sugary. You will use several cans of cinnamon rolls that you then will dip into butter and roll into more sugar. As you can see, this will leave your money bread with a beautiful caramelized coating. However, this can make it hard to get out of the pan (as you can see from the naked bit in the top corner. However, you will love the taste. Don't worry, the pumpkin spice is subtle. 

If you're looking for a simpler dessert, you can make these delicious four-ingredient apple turnovers.

​They are definitely a crowd pleaser. I brought them to my in-laws when we met for a get-together and they absolutely loved them. I didn't have to take any home with me.

Overall, I like them because they are simple and quick to make and can be great for a dessert with coffee, or even as a breakfast pastry. I hope you'll try it out and let me know what you think!

GABRIELLE'S NOTES:

TACO BELL: Taco Bell's nachos are great for those on a budget. They contain the staples of traditional nachos, but the chips are flimsy an often break under the weight of the toppings.

MCALISTER'S DELI: These nachos are what you imagine you would get from the fair or at a football game. They are smothered with chili and an amazing almost homemade cheese sauce.

CHEDDAR'S SCRATCH KITCHEN: These nachos take the cake for taste payoff thanks to the generous helping of toppings built onto each individual chip.  You don't get as many nachos, but you aren't left with a number of dry chips at the end either.

KICKBACK JACK'S: Another great nacho app, really comparable to the McAlister's Deli nachos. However, the cheese sauce doesn't have the same zing as the one at McAlister's.

​MI CASITA: These are as close to traditional Mexican nachos as I think we could get based on the options. The meats are seasoned well, and the queso at Mi Casita is nearly unbeatable.

JONATHAN'S NOTES:

TACO BELL: They aren't bad, but they lose quality because of their fast food roots. It would be better if they had a seasoned pico de gallo instead of regular tomatoes to add flavor.

MCALISTER'S DELI: I don't have anything bad to say. These are my favorite because I think it has the best nacho cheese. Their queso has peppers and tomatoes which tastes amazing.

CHEDDAR'S SCRATCH KITCHEN: I have no issues with these nachos.. I like them because they aren't as messy as traditional nachos because it is made on each individual chip as opposed to a bed of chips with meat, cheese, and toppings thrown on top of it.

KICKBACK JACK'S: The portion size is the biggest out of all of them. In my opinion, there are way too many chips, and far too little toppings. There aren't enough toppings to go around.

MI CASITA: The lettuce and tomato on top make the nachos soggy. You should get a solid crunch when eating nachos, but I find I normally have to use a fork to eat the rest. The meat is really the only thing with flavor.
