| Food Ingredients |
|---|
| Sprouts: you can make your own. Try alfalafa, mustard, radish, sunflower or lentils to name a few |
| Spinach: washed whole leaves |
| Strawberries |
| 1-2 Carrots |
| 2 or 3 hard boiled eggs |
| Salad Dressing: 1/2 cup yogurt ..2 tablespoons honey ..a few squirts of lemon |
| Peeling knife |
| A big flat dish |
Ask a grown-up to hard boil the eggs and take the shells off. Put aside to cool.
Put the sprouts in a circle in the middle of the plate. Make a little hollow in the the middle just like a real bird's nest would look! Rinse the spinach and put it around the outside of the sprouts.
Peel the outside skin off the carrots with a peeling knofe/potatoe peeler. Then make carrot curly cues: using the peelong knife, just draw the peeling knife down the length of the carrot. Put those on the spinach.
Cut up the strawberries and sprinkle those around the spinach/carrot part.
Mix up the dressing ingredients and sprinkle over the whole thing.
Now for the "birds": take the boiled eggs and put those in the "nest". Cheep-Cheep! I'm hungry!
