This afternoon, I remember my favorite Thanksgiving Vegetable Platter. I found the idea at Living Locurto under the post, “10 Creative Vegetable Trays.” I thought I’d repost my version here. Enjoy!
We arrange bok choy and spinach, then carrots, and then sliced peppers of alternating colors for beautiful feathers. We use cucumbers and then half a green pepper as the face. We improvise with olives and a pepper slice to finish the turkey’s expression. Finally, we use celery for feet.

I actually have to force my children to stop eating the vegetables so I can take a photo. Welcome, Turkey Veggie Platter, to our Thanksgiving traditions.

Isn’t it funny how children will eat vegetables made to look like something else?
