How to Throw a Dr. Seuss Birthday Party - Eats

The obvious choice for a Seuss Party is to serve green eggs and ham.  A twist on this theme is to make ham sliders with a side of deviled eggs.  The sliders are easy to make.  On your favorite slider buns, place a slice of deli ham topped with a slice of white cheddar cheese.  Place all the sliders on a cookie sheet, cover tightly with foil and bake in a pre-heated 350 degree (F) oven for 10 minutes or until cheese is melted and ham is warm enough to eat. For an added Seussical touch add green food coloring to the yolk mixture before inserting it back into the hard-boiled egg.

To expand on the Seuss theme make a cheese tree from the book Fox in Socks by sticking cheese cubes onto a Stryofoam cone with toothpicks.  Finish off the meal with fish-shaped crackers in fish bowls to honor of Dr. Seuss' most beloved character The Cat in the Hat.

For your beverage Pink Yink Ink Drink (something the Yink drinks in One Fish, Two Fish) is a must!  An easy pink drink is pink lemonade.  It can be made from scratch or purchased at your local grocery store.  Looking for more ideas?  Check out the Green Egg and Ham Cookbook, which has more recipes inspired by Seuss stories.
