Coco

This week's movie was Coco!

On the menu for this week was Empanadas and a Skull shaped Fruit Pizza.

For dinner made homemade Empanadas. Well...a version of them. I used this recipe from Kraft. https://www.kraftrecipes.com/recipe/120124/shredded-chicken-empanadas-cheese?cm_mmc=Social-_-Pinterest-_-Ahalogy-_-120124#_a5y_p=6341927

Dessert I made a Skull Shaped Sugar Cookie Pizza. It turned out really cute and was delicious! I had used a recipe I ate growing up, it was my mom's. I've included it at the bottom for you!

Thanks for reading this week!
