Funny Bunny Salad Recipes

Steps:

• Arrange lettuce on four salad plates; place a pear half cut side down on each plate. For eyes, insert two currants at narrow end of pear; add one currant for nose. For ears, insert almonds upright behind eyes. , With a sharp knife, cut a small hole at one end of each carrot; insert a parsley sprig for carrot top. Place under bunny's nose. For tail, spray a small mound of whipped cream at the wide end of each pear.

Steps:

• Place 1 lettuce leaf on each salad plate. Place 1 pear half, cut side down, on each lettuce leaf.
• Arrange 2 raisins for eyes, 1 candy for nose and 2 almonds for ears on narrow end of each pear half to make rabbit face.
• Place 2 tablespoons cottage cheese at opposite end of each pear half for tail.

Steps:

• Place pear half, cut side down, on individual lettuce leaf.
• Making small slits to help hold in place, add red hot for nose, raisin halves for eyes, almonds for ears, and cottage cheese for tail.
• If serving very soon, the marshmallow is a fun substitute for a tail; exposed to air too long, it will become much less appealing!

Steps:

• For each salad, place a lettuce leaf on a salad plate. Place a medium scoop of cottage cheese on the lettuce for the bunny's head. Place one pear half, cut-side down, below or under the head for the body. Cut a second pear half into 2 long pieces. Place them above the cottage cheese to make ears. Cut a cheese slice into 6 narrow strips. Place 3 strips on each side of the head to make whiskers. Add olive halves for the eyes and a cherry half for the mouth. Add a small spoonful of cottage cheese next to the body for a tail. Put in the refrigerator until serving time.(Start about 1 hour before serving.)
