RECIPE: Fruit Christmas Tree

I made this fruit salad for my daughters birthday party today and everyone was really impressed and it was eaten within minutes. I did consider decorating the tree with some smaller red grapes to look like baubals and red apple peel to look like tinsel, but in the end I thought the green tree looked nice on its own.

RECIPE: Seasonal Mushroom Canapes

Ok, so this is a bit of a cheat of a Christmas recipe as the only seasonal thing about it is the colour of the herbs and paprika on the top. However I sneaked it in as its really tasty and works well hot or cold on a Christmas buffet or equally can be used as a starter on Christmas day.

RECIPE: Star Shaped Rice Crispy Cakes

I made these today with my 2 year old and she loved making them and eating them afterwards! The only problem we had was that our cookie cutters were tiny so they didn't hold their shape very well, so bigger ones would be better.
