Prep: 30 min. Bake: 15 min.

Yield: 8 Servings

30 15 45

Ingredients

1 package (15 ounces) refrigerated pie pastry
3 tablespoons honey mustard
1/2 pound fully cooked ham, thinly sliced
3 tablespoons thinly sliced green onions
1/2 cup shredded Swiss cheese
1/2 cup shredded Monterey Jack cheese
2 egg yolks
4 to 6 drops red food coloring
1 egg white
2 to 3 drops green food coloring

Directions

On a lightly floured surface, roll one sheet of pastry into a 15-in. circle. Using a floured 5-in. x 4-in. pumpkin cookie cutter, cut out eight pumpkins. Repeat with remaining pastry. Spread mustard over eight pumpkins. Layer with ham, onions and cheeses to within 3/4 in. of edges.
In a small bowl, beat yolks with enough red food coloring to achieve an orange color. In another small bowl, beat egg white with green food coloring. Brush orange mixture over edges of pastry. Top with remaining pumpkins. Press edges to seal; cut with a pastry wheel. Brush stems with green mixture and pumpkins with orange.
Transfer to greased baking sheets. Bake at 400° for 15 minutes or until browned. Yield: 8 servings.
