Summer is the perfect time to be outside reconnecting with nature. No bush walk would be complete without seeing some birds, although not sure these ones are natives!
Recipe
Ingredients
- pineapple (melon/apple/pear)
- strawberries
- cream cheese (yoghurt/coconut cream)
- blueberries (raisins)
- mint (basil/coriander/parsley)
Method
Step 1 Make a trunk for the tree from pineapple.
Step 2 Add some top branches.
Step 3 Use edible leaves to give the tree foliage.
Step 4 Cut strawberries in half to create the birds.
Step 5 Give them some nice ‘googly’ cream cheese eyes.
Step 6 Then use a slice of blueberry for each pupil.
Step 7 A triangle of strawberry can be placed under the eyes for the beaks.
Step 8 Then add some chopped leaves as grass under the tree to finish off.
