Welcome to Fun Food Friday! Have you been making any fun food recently? Whether it be lovely lunches, creative cakes, or a recipe you’ve blogged, please link up below and share the inspiration around. Anything goes, as long as it’s edible!
Today’s fun food from me is a very simple lunch from my archives, and a great example of how you can use supplies you probably already have lying around the house to get creative with your food. The eyes I used on the roll came from a play dough set (obviously I gave it a thorough wash before putting it anywhere near food). If you fancy getting creative with food and don't know where to start, have a look through your children's toy box, craft supplies and of course your own kitchen - you most likely have all sorts of things you could use, from cookie cutters, playdough cutters and accessories, fun shaped containers, toys and cake decorating supplies - a bit of imagination and repurposing goes a long way!
In this lunch Small Child had a tiger bread roll, split and filled with roast chicken and cucumber, then decorated with plastic eyes from a play dough set, and a cucumber slice tongue. On the side he had a cheese string, a mini yellow pepper cut into rings, blueberries, and a heart shaped container full of organic natural yoghurt with some pink heart sprinkles on top. I also added some mini animal picks to the blueberries to decorate.
This lunch was all eaten up - Small Child especially loved the roll, he thought it was really funny!

Yum, that tiger bread roll looks really tempting! Have linked up an old post I did about making food fun. It's a bit of ramble about lots of ideas, hope that's ok. x
