Funny Face Salad

(My funny face: tomatoes, eggs,and turkey).              BB’s (carrot “hair”,cheese, cucumber, tomato, ham)

Here’s a simple, frugal, nourishing meal.

Funny Face Salad

BB (Baby Brother) loves salad, vegetables, and fruit! (Although he also loves cookies, etc.) but, hey, we are happy that he loves good stuff too. And who doesn’t love cookies? I do…..just not what he likes.

Anyway, BB requests funny face salad for his birthday every year. It’s a pretty simple concept, I think we found it from Family Fun Magazine one year.

So, all you do, is lay out your lettuce and then use your vegetables/meat/cheese/etc as you wish to make a “Funny Face” salad and then you eat! It’s fun and a good way to get kids excited about eating healthy! Besides, it can be adapted to whatever your food allergies/intolerances/diets may be!

So go to town! My whole family loves this dinner. Even my picky-16 year old brother–that doesn’t normally eat any fruits/veggies likes/will eat this.

Hope you enjoy this and watch out for more posts soon to come! \

PS. What do you do to feed your family frugally and nourish them at the same time? How do you get them excited about eating healthy?
