Ants
Hiding in a Log from the Anteater
- 2 slices of enriched white
or whole wheat bread
4 tablespoons fat-free cream cheese
1/4 cup raisins, unpacked (ants)
- Remove crusts from the
bread.
- Spread half the cream
cheese on each slice.
- Cut each slice into 3
strips (logs).
- Place 15 to 20 raisins
in a line on two strips. Stack the two strips together, cheese
and "ants" side up. Place the third strip on top to
form a triple-decker. You now have ants hiding in a log from
the anteater.
- Feed them to your little
"anteaters."
