Ingredients
  

Main Fruit
  • 10 large strawberries firm and red
  • 2 medium bananas ripe but firm
  • 1 tsp lemon juice to prevent browning
Decoration
  • 2 candy googly eyes or chocolate chips
  • 1 tsp peanut butter used as glue
  • 1 tbsp honey optional glaze

Equipment

  • Cutting board
  • Small Knife
  • Large serving plate

Method
 

  1. Wash strawberries and pat completely dry. Peel bananas.
  2. Slice bananas into 1/2 inch rounds and toss lightly with lemon juice to prevent browning.
  3. Slice strawberries into rounds of similar thickness, reserving one large whole strawberry for the head.
  4. Using a tiny bit of peanut butter as glue, attach the candy eyes to the whole strawberry head.
  5. On a plate, alternate strawberry and banana slices in a winding S-shape to form the body.
  6. Place the head at the front and add a tiny sliver of strawberry as a tongue if desired.
  7. Drizzle with honey for extra shine and serve immediately.

Notes

Use firm fruit so the snake maintains its shape on the plate.
