Want a healthy and fun idea for the little ones for Christmas? Just remember that bananas go brown quickly so make and enjoy right away!
Ingredients:
Bananas
Strawberries
Miniature Marshmallows for top of hat
Regular size Marshmallows cut into slices for hat
M & M for nose
Brown sprinkles for eyes
Wooden Kabob stick for handle
Note: a simple trick to keep bananas from turning brown is to splash lemon juice (fresh or bottled) over the fruit. Keep these in a plastic bag until ready to use the bananas. This works great on apples and pears also.
simply squeeze some
lemon juice over them. You can use fresh, or bottled lemon juice (which I
usually have on hand). No need to measure a certain amount, just
squeeze a generous amount over the fruit and toss the fruit to coat.
Make sure to cover the fruit tightly with plastic wrap, or place it in
an air-tight container until you are ready to eat it.
