Healthy Easter Snack: Ireland AM

Healthy Easter Snack: Ireland AM

Ireland AM April 7th 2014. We were delighted to be asked back on the Ireland Am Cooking slot and this time it was joined by my daughter Ashleigh (age 5). On the day we prepared an Easter Bunny Snack.

Ingredients

3 Slices Wholemeal bread
Apple
Blueberries
Raisins
Celery
Red Pepper
Dried apricots
Strawberries
Cream Cheese

Utensils

Flower circle shaped cutters large and small
Culinary scissors

Method

Step 1: Cut out the bunny face with the large cutter.
Step 2: Cut out the ears and body using the scissors
Step 3: Cut out the tail (small cutter)
Step 4: Spread the cream cheese over the bread
Step 5: Dress him up! Here's how.

  • Cut the whiskers out of the celery and make them long and thin.

  • Halve a strawberry, slice that half nice and thin and cut it into a little strawberry  for the nose.

  • Halve a blueberry for the eyes

  • Slice some red pepper, nice and thin in the same (but smaller) shape of the ears. Finish flesh side up, for the insides of the bunny ears.

  • Slice some apple and place skin side up for the bunny’s belly.

  • Cut triangles from dried apricot to make a bow-tie, using a dried blueberry for the knot.

  • Cut out 2 small rectangles from the apple for the bunny teeth.

  • Assemble on your child’s favorite plate and enjoy!
