Celebrate Halloween with a batch of these Salty Bones, made with the most simple ingredients.
With Halloween quickly approaching, I wanted to make my children a special treat. This Salty Bones recipe is not an original recipe, but one that was sent to me by the studio with permission to use. I did change things up just a little, but only because I didn’t have one of the two required ingredients on hand.
Although I didn’t have the tube of refrigerated breadsticks on hand, I made due with a tube of refrigerated crescent rolls. While it definitely would have been easier using the breadsticks, I think the crescent rolls turned out just fine, although just a little bit flat.
I wanted to add more of a WOW factor to dinner, so I decided to serve these Salty Bones with bright red tomato soup. The children loved it and couldn’t stop talking about their gory dinner. While I know that it would gross some out, it worked for our family and my children are still talking about it.

The combo with soup sounds delicious! I think it’s great that you were able to make it work with crescent rolls instead.
Crystal says
Me too. While they did turn out flatter than they would have with the breadstick dough, they were a huge hit with the kiddos (and to me, that’s all that matters).
