OK so maybe I'm getting a bit obsessed with making these meals for my preschooler. 2 in one day! Little Man isn't feeling well today so I thought I'd make a special dinner for him. Plus I'm not sure how much longer he'll be getting these "special" meals with baby #2 arriving anyday now.
We have 2 octopus and 2 mini crabs made out of mini hot dogs. I sliced the octopus tenacles and crab legs and put it in the toaster oven for a few minutes, enough for a slight curl. I used a straw to cut rounds from cheddar cheese for the octopus mouth and glued it on with cream cheese. For the eyes, I didn't have black sesame seeds so I used the regular ones and glued them on with syrup.
I toasted a waffle and used a fish cookie cutter for the fish shape and used edamame as "bubbles" coming from his mouth. The little thing next to the "bubbles" was my attempt at a sea enemy. I used a piece of string cheese and shredded the top and used blue and green Food Writer markers for some color. The cute little orange container holds syrup for dipping.
