Darling Clementines Pumpkins

Today, our featured recipe is healthy, vitamin C-loaded clementines… Disguised into pumpkins! Aren’t they adorable?

Ingredients: (per pumpkin)

  • 1 clementine

  • 12×12 square cling wrap
  • 1″ clear tape
  • scraps of felt, cut for eyes , nose, mouth, or googly eyes:)
  • twist tie
  • silk ivy leaf
  • green floral tape
  • glue, if not using self stick felt or googly eyes

Preparation:

  1. Wrap clementine in cling film and twist it tightly.
  2. Secure the cling film at the top with clear tape so the clementine is tightly wrapped.
  3. Cover the clear tape with green floral tape, then snip to desired length.
  4. Attach an ivy leaf with a twist tie to the floral tape, and cover the entire length of the tie with tape.
  5. Twist leaf/tie around stem as desired.
  6. Apply felt faces as desired. Choose self-stick felt for really little children. This is a great one to have the kids make with you… They create the cutest faces! This is the perfect healthy nut-free handout treat for Halloween, and the little ones really seem to love them!
