These strawberry banana fruit on skewers (or is it kebabs?) were so simple.
Slice them.
Assemble in a pattern and enjoy!
Perfect Spring or Summer treat (or for Dr. Seuss' birthday or 4th of July).
I am not the only one to have ever thought of this idea however. I googled it before I posted and found lots of others have made Starwberry Banana Skewers. Even our very own
Little Wonder Days
Happy
Muffin Tin Monday Everyone! And happy Independence Day to all my American friends. In America, every year on July 4th, we celebrate our independence as a nation from England (on
July 4th, 1776). We remember each year, the gift we have been given to live freely.
In honor of that celebration, this week's MTM theme is
Red, White and Blue.
Here's what I made.
Red organic cherries from the farmer's market, strawberries, and watermelon
Now it's your turn. Don't feel you need to do a themed tin to participate. Go ahead and add your link!
Happy Monday! I'll keep it short and simple this week.
Muffin Tin Mom is the official Home of Muffin Tin Monday. To learn more visit the
MTM FAQ page.
Here's what we did:
Blueberries and cheese on flag picks (thanks Jamie!), strawberries, blueberries, and white chocolate covered Oreos. Yum! Ironically, we had almost the same thing last year for MTM. Go figure.
The star plate is from Target (you may be able to still find them on clearance), and muffin cups and picks from Wilton *and my friend Jamie. :)
What did you make? Please share it with us! Be sure to click on the blue "inlinkz" below.
Today's link love is a US Independence Day/4th of July theme. Nothing like a few last minute ideas!
Muffin Tin Mom (that's me!): Pack a blanket, a bottle of water (or thermos of coffee) and a
snack box for the fireworks show tonight. Or, make the super simple
strawberry star cupcakes I made yesterday (photo above)...
******************************
I had a whole post on how to whip up these simple and delicious strawberry star cupcakes for Fourth of July, and then it was accidentally erased!
Did not do whipped-cream frosting, no reason, except I'm not a fan of it on cupcakes and it doesn't hold up well in the heat.
Just the basics: Store-bought cake mix, store-bought canned vanilla frosting, strawberries and blueberries and red cupcake liners....that's about it. :)
Happy 4th of July!!
Simple, easy,and done in minutes, these 4th of July chocolate dipped Oreo cookies are sure to be a hit at your Independence Day event. And it's a great way to let the kids help with the festivities! For the full tutorial, head to my original
chocolate covered Oreo post.
