I CAN’T DECIDE WHAT I LIKE BEST ABOUT THIS FLAG. It’s 100 percent fresh fruit. It’s easy to make. It’s a festive snack for the 4th of July. There could be other reasons too but because I get up twice every night now, my brain can only come up with these three.
For this version you need wooden skewers, strawberries, blueberries and bananas but you could also just arrange piles on a tray and skip the skewers. I like the skewers because they’re simple and fun for the kids to grab and go, plus portion size is built in but if you have a bigger group, a whole tray filled with berries would work just as well.
Speaking of variations, you could use white cheese for the bananas, which don’t keep longer than an hour or so. You could also use raspberries in place of the strawberries. I don’t know of many blue foods but if you do, please fill us in on a clever idea for that upper left corner! In the meantime, here’s to a happy Independence Day!
