Camp

by

Have you had a memorable family trip like this one?  Why not re-create it?
Camping scene:  Tent is made of a peanut butter sandwich, the tree trunks and ground are made of Triscuit crackers, the leaves on the trees are made of cucumber and the campfire is made out of a base of walnuts and flames of carrots and yellow pepper.

My husband and I are off to the Great Smoky Mountains for a little getaway, so this also reflects a little of my anticipation for our trip!

Disney’s "Up" Lunch

by

One of our favorite Disney movies is their film”Up”.  It is a such a good movie to watch with the kids. We love making cute snacks to go along with our favorite Disney movies like we did for with Mike Wazowski from Monster’s Inc, Mickey Mouse,
up!
was so creative, and what I love about having lots of fruits and vegetables in the house is the ability to take all those colors and use them to create something like this.  The balloons are made of bananas, green grapes, strawberries, blueberries, carrots, and red grapes.  Shape each fruit or veggie like a circle.  Next, make your house.  I used half of a graham cracker and a triangle Triscuit cracker for the roof.  Windows are made of thin wheels of string cheese.  I took that same string cheese and peeled it into thin pieces to use as the strings for the balloons.  Finish off the house with a banana wheel cut into a rectangle shape, and you have a fabulous and colorful “Up” lunch.

House

by

To make this house, make a sandwich and slice to a square shape.  Create a roof out of celery, a door out of strawberry and a raisin doorknob.  The window and the chimney are made of carrot.  The chimney smoke is cottage cheese and the sidewalk is Triscuit crackers.  The little bush outside the house are little sugar snap peas.  Cheese finishes this scene up as the sun.
 
If you have a specifically colored home (like yellow), try to make your own home with cheese, or use celery to make a green house!  Our house is tan, so the sandwich worked for us!
