Elmo Smiley Treat


Today is my cleaning day.  While i was busy doing house cleaning, my two little lovers also busy want to help.  They then clean their toys and the play house (Well...in my view, they're playing more than anything else.. ;P).


Anyway, good gesture should have positive reinforcement and here come their furry friend, Elmo Smiley treat for their afternoon tea-time.

When i first came across this interesting idea, i told myself i need to do it for my two little lovers one day. 

My 1st time of preparing this was back in February and the smiley face was ugly done then due to i was rushing to put the girls for their afternoon nap.  However, they were still very excited with it. 

This time, i did it with a much nicer look and what is better still, i added the girls favorite M&M this time.  ;)

Ingredients (for 2 Elmo Smiley Treat):
  • 1 Orange, cut in half 
  • 6-8 frozen Strawberries
  • 1 banana, sliced in circles
  • 1 baby carrot, cut out both the ends for use
  • 4 raisins
  • 4 M&Ms candy

Steps:
  1. Cut the orange in half, use a spoon to scoop out the insides orange of each half.  Cut the inside orange into pieces and set aside
  2. Blend the frozen strawberries in a blender/food processor (I squeeze them using the omega juicer)
  3. Transfer the blended smoothie into the empty orange halves
  4. Place two banana slices at the top of each smoothie for Elmo's eyes, top the banana slices with a M&M each
  5. Add the baby carrot end below the bananas for Elmo's nose
  6. Place two raisins together on each smoothie for a smile
  7. Transfer to the serving plate, surrounded with the orange slices and remaining banana slices
Then, time to enjoy this Elmo's Smiley Smoothie!
