Bunny Pear Salad Recipes

Steps:

• Place 1 lettuce leaf on each salad plate. Place 1 pear half, cut side down, on each lettuce leaf.
• Arrange 2 raisins for eyes, 1 candy for nose and 2 almonds for ears on narrow end of each pear half to make rabbit face.
• Place 2 tablespoons cottage cheese at opposite end of each pear half for tail.

Steps:

• Arrange lettuce on four salad plates; place a pear half cut side down on each plate. For eyes, insert two currants at narrow end of pear; add one currant for nose. For ears, insert almonds upright behind eyes. , With a sharp knife, cut a small hole at one end of each carrot; insert a parsley sprig for carrot top. Place under bunny's nose. For tail, spray a small mound of whipped cream at the wide end of each pear.

Steps:

• Dissolve gelatin in warm water.
• Pour into an 8" x 8" pan and chill until firm: shred with tines of a fork or force through a ricer to resemble grass.
• For each salad, fill a pear half with cottage cheese mixed with mayonnaise and chopped almonds.
• Place a piece of leaf lettuce on a chilled plate and top with gelatin "grass"; place pear half rounded side up on the gelatin.
• Make bunny's ears, mouth and tail from almonds.
• Make eyes by dipping the tip of a knife into paprika then gently into pear where you'd like the eyes to be.
• If you wish to garnish, form a "carrot" from yellow cheese or cheese salad with a sprig of parsley for "carrot greens".
• Serve with mayonnaise.
