Berry Christmas Wreath

Makes 1 serving

Preparation Time: 10 min

2011 Kids Recipe Challenge winning recipe: 2nd place!

Ingredients

1  apple 1 
2 tbsp Low fat yogurt cheese or peanut butter 25 mL
9  blackberries or raspberries, halved 9 
9  cherries, pitted and halved 9 
  Fresh mint leaves (optional)  
This is an easy and fun snack to make. When you use your favourite toppings and fruit, the combinations can be endless! An apple corer will help make a perfect circle for the wreath.  Otherwise, parents can use a knife to take out the core and then kids can have fun with the decorating!

Instructions

Step 1
Using apple corer remove core of apple and slice into 5 or 6 slices.

Step 2
Spread each slice with some of the yogurt cheese or peanut butter and top with alternating cherries and berries.

Step 3
Garnish with mint to serve.

Tips

You can also substitute cream cheese mixed with some yogurt for the topping.

To make yogurt cheese: Pour 1 tub (650 g) of plain yogurt into a cheesecloth lined sieve set over a bowl. Cover and refrigerate for at least 6 hours or up to overnight.  This will allow the liquid to drain out of the yogurt so you are left with a thick and creamy cheese.  Drain the liquid and place yogurt cheese into a sealed container and refrigerate until needed.
