FALL LEAVES

~ Pumpkin Seeds ~ Bread ~ Cheese ~ Olive ~

Kids love playing in leaves…now it’s time to play with food!!

CLICK BELOW FOR MORE INFO:

PUMPKIN SEEDS:
Once you have dug them out of the pumpkin and rinsed them of any pulp, toss them with a drizzle of olive oil, a dash of balsamic vinegar, and sea salt.  Divvy them up into separate containers.  One for each color you wish to use.  I made red, orange, yellow, and left one handful  natural.  Put them all in a single layer on a baking sheet.  Bake 325° for about 20 min or until desired crispiness.  Let cool.  Store in dry place.

To make kid:
Use a vitamin bottle to cut a small round circle out of a slice of bread for the head.  Use a straw to cut tiny circles out of white cheese for the eyes.  Cut tiny pieces of olive for the pupils.  Cut a small piece of olive for the smile.  Cut out a body shape from the same slice of bread.  Cut clothes and hair out of cheese.  Use 2 pieces of bread crust for the arms.  Crust side down. Now take a handful of colored pumpkin seeds and place at feet and then a few up at the top.

My girls LOVED this one.
They had a blast playing with all the pieces.

I’m so excited, because it’s my fave season!!!
{Even though it’s still 85° where I live, which is totally wrong.}

The leaves have yet to change colors, but I couldn’t help myself  in making a fun fall Nummie!!

The trees always show the first signs of fall.
Oh, how I adore all the pretty leaves changing color.

I wanted to come up with a new creative way to make colored leaves. While brain storming, my 7yo dropped her cute little pumpkin on the living room floor.  It’s not even Oct and my kids are already smashing pumpkins!! Let nothing go to waste…ROAST THE SEEDS!!!  I was elbow deep into the slimy pumpkin digging out the precious little seeds when it hit me:  DYE THE PUMPKIN SEEDS.  So, that’s what I did!  Added a bit of food coloring to them, and voila!!
We have pretty leaves!!!
They are so festive…not to mention yummy!!

~ Bread ~ Cheese ~ Pumpkin Seeds ~

Oh happy day when the leaves start falling…
I hope to see leaves changing soon!!!

HAPPY FALL!!!!
