The mom also shared her super easy recipe for edible paint.

Doherty created green, blue and pink edible paints. She dipped a paintbrush into each pot to create colorful texts, shapes and patterns on a few slices of white bread.

“Such a fun idea,” a user commented.

“We always do this for Halloween and call it ‘monster toast,'” another wrote.

“This also works with milk and food dye,” someone added.
