Using Fruit To Create Fast Food Look-A-Likes!

Just for fun! You can easily create what appears to look like fast food from fresh fruit!  This is handy when your children are starting to prefer or ask for fast food but you'd prefer to serve them a healthy selection of fruit instead!  It just takes a little creativity to create a fruit pizza or burger which looks appealing and is sure to create some smiles!

 I have a daughter who loves fruit and loves McDonalds... I know which one I prefer her to have! 

Using just two apples and whatever other fruit you have you can create this cute looking burger and fries.

I just hollowed out one apple and cut off the top, I used the excess pieces to create fries and carved and "M" symbol on the apple.

The other apple I cut in half and inbetween placed slices of banana, strawberry and grapes to create the hamburger! 

My daughter is also a fan of melon and strawberries.  And this is a fruit pizza we love to create together.  It's perfect to prepare before visitors arrive, or to bring as a platter to a party!

To create the fruit pizza, simply cut through a watermellon to create a slice (For mini-pizza's you could use Rockmelon or Honeydew).  Slice up your fruit and berry topics.  And for cheeze you could use frozen grated cheeze or grated carrot! 

I love serving my daughter colourful healthy meals with lots of fruit and this is a great way to have fun with food and make the fruit look exciting!
