    Ingredients

    • 1/2 ripe avocado
    • squeeze of lemon juice
    • 1 x thin slice of ripe pear or kiwi or apple (slice across so it's an oval shape) - pear or apple needs to be steamed or thinly sliced to avoid choking. For decoration: cherry tomato, spinach or basil leaves, chives, black olive pieces
    • 2 x thin slices of cucumber
    • 1 x blueberry, halved + 2 x quarters of a blueberry
    • slice of strawberry for the smiley mouth (could also use red pepper or tomato)

    Method

    1. Mash the avocado finely with a squeeze of lemon juice (or lime) Create your froggy face with this. Little ones can help spread out the avo with the back of a spoon or their hands.
    2. Add the slice of pear, apple or kiwi for the lower part of the face.
    3. Add 2 slices of cucumber for the eyes + then place the halved blueberries over the cucumber.
    4. Use the quartered blueberries for nostrils + the strawberry slice for the mouth.

    Swap this for that

    You could make this with broccoli and potato mash instead of avocado and use tomato/red pepper for the mouth, green pepper for nose, peas for eyes and nostrils
