This fresh fruit platter is fun and tasty for children of all ages❣ |
Ingredients:
1 large fresh pineapple
4 cups strawberries
4 cups green seedless grapes
1 cup blueberries
1 large marshmallow (optional)
5 toothpicks
Method:
Cut the spiked top and the bottom off of the pineapple. Carefully remove all of the rough outer skin. Cut a round slice off of each end of the pineapple and set aside.
Cut the remaining portion of of pineapple in half lengthwise. Slice each half into about 8 horizontal slices. Arrange the horizontal slices on a platter to form the long body of the bunny.
Cut 3 edges off of one of the reserved round pineapple slices to make the bunny face. Break or cut 2 toothpicks in half. Use 3 of the broken pieces to attach 3 large blueberries to the pineapple face to make 2 eyes and a nose. Cut ears from the remaining round pineapple slice. Use 2 whole toothpicks to attach the ears above the face. If desired, use another toothpick to attach the marshmallow on the opposite end for a tail.
Remove the stems from the strawberries. Arrange the strawberries, grapes and blueberries on the platter around the pineapple bunny. Serves 8 to 10. Enjoy.
Note: This is simple to make ~ the fruits may be prepared the day before and then assembled the day the fruit salad is served.
