Oh Christmas Tree, OH, CHRISTMAS TREEEEE!!!! (Raw Vegetable Christmas Tree)

Oh Christmas Tree, OH CHRISTMAS TREEEEE!!!! (Raw Vegetable Christmas Tree)

Since I LOVE Christmas Trees so much, I sometimes make Christmas Trees with food! Edible Christmas Trees are better, right? :)

This year, I made one with Broccoli !!!





You need:

2 broccoli stalks
red, yellow (and orange) bell peppers
1/2 carrot
coconut flakes
double-sided toothpicks

How to:

1) Place larger-size broccolis on a plate as "Tree Base" using toothpicks




2) Stick toothpicks like the pictures here and start building broccoli blocks




3) As the Tree comes toward the top, cut the stems short like the picture below 




4) Let's place Christmas Ornaments (Cubed red/orange peppers) on the tree! 




5) Put a BRIGHT YELLOW PEPPER STAR on the Christmas Tree!!!




6) Carefully place the shredded carrot tinsels on the tree, and sprinkle the shredded coconut flakes to add 'snow effect.'  (If you want more showed tree effect, you could use a melted coconut oil over the tree so the tinsels and snow could stick well on it)


"Merry Christmas!"
