Ingredients

  • 1 Apple
  • 1 Banana
  • 1 Kiwi
  • 2 Dried cranberries or raisons

Instructions

  • Start by making the turkey's body. Slice an apple in half. Place the apple in the center of a plate, with the flat side down.
  • Create the turkey's feathers by chopping up the remaining apple as well as the kiwi and banana, into small slices. Form 3-4 strands of feathers that extend from the turkey's body.
  • Create the turkey's face! Use the raisins to create the turkey's eyes, and a small triangular piece of kiwi to form the turkey's beak. 
  • As a final step, cut out six small, thin slices of the apple's skin to form the turkey's feet. Add a top hat (optional) and then enjoy your turkey fruit plate!!

  • Feel free to use whatever fruit you have at home. Grapes, raspberries or strawberries would also work well for the feathers!
