Meatball Creepy Crawlers- Week 12

So, I realize I have been TERRIBLE at posting a weekly recipe, however, I have been consistant in trying a new one each week.  This will hit you all at once, but I have some catching up to do.  Let the posting begin!

Made this the week of Halloween for the kiddos as a fun dinner.  We used it as an accessory to spaghelli ala philly!

Ingredients:
1 (12 oz) can of Pillsbury Golden Layers refrigerated flaky original biscuits
20 frozen meatballs, thawed
1/4 cup shoestring potatoes or chow mein noodles
sloced olives, pickles and carrots, as desired

Dips, if desired:
1/4 cup ketchup
1/4 cup mustard
1/2 cup cheese dip

Direstions:
1.  Heat oven to 375 degrees.  Spray large cookie sheet with cooking spray, OR cover with cooking parchment paper.
2. Seperate dough into 10 biscuits.  Seperate each biscuit into 2 layers.  Wrap 1 biscuit piece around each meatball; seal.  To make 1 crawler, line up 10 biscuit-wrapped meatballs on cookie sheet, making sure each is touching, to to make a curved line.  Poke shoestring potatoes in both side4s of each ball for legs, at head for antennae and tongue, and end for tail.  Repeat with remaining 10 wrapped meatballs to make second crawler.
3.  Bake 13 to 16 minutes or until golden brown.  Garnish with ollives for eyes and mouth.  Top every other section with layer of sliced pickle, carrot and olive.  In small bowl, mix ketchup and mustard.  Serve crawlers with dips, if desired.
