Healthy Options | Semi-Homemade Fruity Turkey Muffins
Posted by on
Thanksgiving is definitely one of the happiest times of the year to share with friends and family. But it is also loaded with lots of calories, so we found this easy-to-make idea for dessert, everyone will love and enjoy making, especially kids! Happy Healthy Wednesday!
Semi-homemade Turkey Muffins
What you need:
- Pumpkin muffins
- Red apple
- Green apple
- Sliver of carrot
- Squeezable icing—eyes
Directions:
From each apple, cut a slice from the side of the apple. Set flat and cut squared-off, tapered feathers. Cut a small beak from a thin slice of carrot. Make a slit in the end of a green grape and dab off excess moisture. Insert beak into grape. Poke small ends of feathers into muffin and set head on muffin, resting on the muffin paper. Once assembled, add tiny dot eyes with icing.
Enjoy!

Healthy Wednesday #11: Spring Produce

I may not have a soft spot for [...]
