Happy HalloWINE: Sweet Pepper Bruschetta Recipe and Wine Printables
It’s the most wonderful time of the year…and I’m not talking about Christmas. No, it’s autumn that really gets me. The weather is cooler but not cold, and there are so many fall festivals that I end up with too many pumpkins and a lot of fabulous memories! This year is shaping up to be no different, and in an effort to share the Halloween love, I am BOOing my friends and neighbors! Have you ever BOOed someone? You basically surprise them with a fun basket of holiday goodies by leaving it at their doorstep. A fun note accompanies it along with a sweet treat or craft.
The Wine
To properly BOO my friends, I needed to gift them a tasty beverage to go along with the holiday! I love trying new wines and varieties.
The Recipe
To add a bit of kick to your everyday appetizer, try my sweet pepper bruschetta! I am kind of obsessed with tomatoes, olive oil, and red wine vinegar, but this recipe takes it to another level. With just a splash of Robert Mondavi Private Selection Cabernet Sauvignon, this pepper bruschetta is an awesome pairing for your next Halloween get together.
Create your own pepper bruschetta with fresh crusty bread, breadcrumbs (or use crushed croutons for an easy texture!), and get ready for an out of this world autumn appetizer.
You can use a mix of tomatoes, but I love roma tomatoes. They are easy to chop, and I can always find them when I need them.

The Tutorial
I made my gift basket with a giant candy bucket! It is the easiest way to gather all your best Halloween goodies to gift.
Add Robert Mondavi Private Selection wine with cute pumpkins and printables! I made two printables just for you. They are sized at 4″ x 6″, but you may print them at other sizes too.
I print them four to a sheet, and trim them to tuck inside each BOO gift basket. You can also make sure to celebrate HalloWINE!

The Pumpkin DIY
I think I gave up carving pumpkins about three years ago. My son was just born, and I decided that nobody had time for that. 😉 Honestly, though, I prefer painting and embellishing! From stickers to gemstones, it’s way more fun to get creative with painted pumpkins. This year we are doing a Day of the Dead theme, and I’m painting an entire skeleton family to gift!
As an added bonus to the BOO gift baskets, a decorated mini pumpkin is in everyone’s basket too!
Luckily you can buy kits to help you get started, but you can also use this face as an inspiration! Paint a pumpkin white and draw a black skeleton face.
Add gems for extra color, draw a nose with an upside heart, and add a fun felt flower!
You can get very creative when you BOO your own friends. From pumpkins to candy to wine, there are so many ideas!
