- Slice the Pepperoni: Slice the pepperoni stick into assorted sizes for visual interest.
- Prepare the Red Bell Pepper: Slice into small wedges to serve as a colorful garnish.
- Assemble the Eyeballs: Use skewers to assemble starting with a red pepper wedge, then a chunk of pepperoni, followed by a mozzarella eyeball, another slice of pepperoni, and finish with a second mozzarella ball.
- Chill and Serve: Refrigerate assembled skewers for at least 30 minutes before serving.

Notes
These eyecatching appetizers are perfect for Halloween and can be prepared ahead of time, but assemble closer to serving time for freshness.
