Halloween this year is on a Tuesday night, and we're showing you how to get ahead of your dinner and clean up. Because face it, feeling festive on a weeknight Halloween is downright scary when you factor in getting dinner on the table, costumes, trick-or-treating with the kids, answering the door for other trick-or-treaters, and getting up and out the next day. So here is a dynamic duo that puts you ahead of dinner and cleanup — Reynolds Kitchens Slow Cooker Liners and Reynolds Kitchens Parchment Paper with stay flat dispensing.

Slow cooker meatballs are the perfect make-ahead meal, and you can set your slow cooker earlier in the day or after trick-or-treating and have everything ready when you get home. First, set your meatballs with just three ingredients: a large jar of grape jelly, a bottle of tomato-based chili sauce, and a pinch of cayenne pepper. 

After cooking your meatballs, add them to a skewer stick with a cooked hot dog cut with slits for arms and legs, and wrap both the meatball and hot dog with thin strips of pre-made dough to look like mummies for an extra spooky twist.

Line a baking pan with parchment paper and briefly bake them all together. The all-new Reynolds Kitchens Parchment Paper with stay flat dispensing has a reinforced panel that makes it stay flat and prevents curling. It’s easy to use with a simple tuck, press, and pull. 

Then, simply toss out the used slow cooker liner and parchment paper for an easy cleanup afterward. No need for dreaded soak and scrub — no mess, no stress. Reynolds Kitchens Slow Cooker Liners are made of heat-resistant nylon, are BPA-free, and make your Halloween cooking easy and mess-free.
