Healthy Christmas Tree Snack
Ingredients:
1-2 stalks celery
1 slice ham
1-2 baby carrots
1 cheese stick
small section of a yellow pepper
Directions:
Use cut celery arrange on an angle to create the shape of the tree. Slice a baby carrot into wheels for the ornaments. Cut a yellow pepper into the shape of a star for the top of the tree.
Create the trunk by rolling a slice of deli ham into a one inch wide roll-up and folding it in half. Slice the bottom off to create a straight line if you wish.
My favorite part of this snack are the snowflakes. I created them by slicing some string cheese into wheels, then carefully slicing little triangles out of them (from the outside in).
Serve with a little ranch for dipping, and enjoy!
(My kids ate this whole snack up! So much good fiber and protein!)
Variations:
Use cucumbers for the tree (sliced in “sticks”)
Use a carrot or two for the trunk and cherry tomatoes for the ornaments
Use yogurt for the snowflakes
