“Butterfly Salad,” Friend, Aug. 1997, 33
Butterfly Salad
1 large lettuce leaf
1/2 small banana (cut lengthwise)
1 slice pineapple, cut in half
2 maraschino cherries, sliced in half
2 toothpicks
-
Place the lettuce on a salad plate and lay the banana half (the butterfly’s “body”), flat side down, across it.
-
Place each half of the pineapple slice (the butterfly’s wings) on either side of the banana.
-
Stick one end of each toothpick into the top of the banana, then stick a cherry half onto the other end (the butterfly’s antennae).
-
Place one cherry half in the middle of each wing as a design.
