Turkey Fruit Snack
Since last month’s Jack-O-Lantern Fruit Cups were such a big hit, I decided to make a healthy Thanksgiving themed snack this month. Family Fun Magazine once again provided my inspiration, this time for an adorable turkey!
Gobble me up!!
Directions:
Arrange apple and clementine or navel orange slices on a plate as shown, and lay a cored pear half on top. Use scissors to halve a dried apricot, then snip small triangles from each half and tuck them under the pear to form the feet. Finally, use peanut butter or softened cream cheese to attach mini chocolate chip eyes, a nut beak (we used a cashew), and a dried cranberry snood.
OMG, I am so glad you posted this! I’ve been looking for something to take to my son’s daycare potluck next week, and this is perfect! Thank you, thank you, thank you! I can’t wait to make it.
This is too cute!! What a great idea for a healthy snack!
Too, too cute! I love this simple, yet delicious idea… thanks for the warm e-mail!
It turned out great! I’m so happy to have rediscovered your blog. Looks like I have a lot of recipes to catch up on! (BTW – you might like my turkey apples or pilgrim pancakes. Feel free to check them out!)
