This cute pumpkin platter made of carrots, cucumber, mozzarella, and hummus is fun, delicious, and definitely not scary!
To make it, place two small bowls of hummus on a platter for the eyes. Arrange carrot slices around the bowls and then decorate with cucumber slices, cucumber peel, and mozzarella to make your pumpkin.
If you want a scary pumpkin, slice a piece of mozzarella for the mouth and fill it with sharp cucumber teeth.
This platter is also great for Thanksgiving, with its cozy fall vibes to fit any occasion.
Ingredients
- 6 carrots
- 200 grams hummus
- 1 cucumber
- 1 fresh mozzarella
- round cookie cutter
Instructions
Makes 1 platter.
1. Peel the carrots.
2. Chop them into discs.
3. Place two small bowls of hummus for eyes on a platter.
4. Use the round cookie cutter to make cucumber peel eyes. Top with a bit of mozzarella for the highlights.
5. Arrange the carrot discs around the bowls and make a slight indent between the eyes so it resembles a pumpkin.
6. Place some cucumber slices for the stem.
7. Make the mouth using a long strip of mozzarella or cucumber peel.
8. Serve.
Notes
I used avocado peel for the eyes, but cucumber peel would work better. That way, you can eat everything.
The round cookie cutter I use is part of a set and linked in my Shop.
