Ingredients
You don't need much to make this little fruit snack!
- Mandarin Oranges (Cuties)
- Celery Stick
- Parsley
See the recipe card for quantities.
Instructions
Peel all the oranges and remove any pith. Be careful not to pull the orange apart - it should stay whole.
Using a paring knife, slice the celery sticks into ¼ inch thick pieces that are ½ to ¾ inch long. These will be the "pumpkin stems" so cut them thin enough to fit into the top of the orange.
Assemble the "pumpkins" by placing the parsley and celery piece into the top of the oranges.
Serve immediately or save for up to 2 days in the refrigerator in an airtight container or plastic bag.
