Just imagine a cute display of penguins, made with black olives, carrots and cream cheese! You can add scarves and hats by using fresh red pepper strips, or canned pimentos cut into different shapes. Use frilly toothpicks if you can.
Ingredients
- 18 jumbos black olives , pitted
- 1 package cream cheese , 8 ounce
- 18 small black olives
- 1 carrot
Instructions
-
1
Cut a slit lengthwise (from top to bottom) into one side of each jumbo olive. Carefully insert about 1 teaspoon cream cheese into slits in each jumbo olive.
-
2
Slice carrot into 18 1/4-inch-thick rounds; cut a small (pie-shaped) notch out of each carrot slice to form feet. Save the cut out pieces; press pieces into centers of small olives to form beaks. If necessary cut a small slit into each small olive before inserting the beak.

Set a jumbo olive, large hole side down, onto a carrot slice. Then, set a small olive onto the jumbo olive, adjusting so that the beak, cream cheese chest, and notch in the carrot (feet) slice line up. Secure with a toothpick.

Air Fryer Chicken Wings
These air fryer chicken wings are coated with a fiery homemade Buffalo sauce for a crowd-pleasing game day snack without the mess! There is no need to deep fry in all of that oil when you can achieve crispy wings straight out of the air fryer.
Berry Puff Pancake
My family requests this pancake often when fresh berries are in season. Serve with whipped topping, chocolate syrup, and powdered sugar. I cut the pancake into quarters and let everyone top it however they want.
Steak and Kidney Pie
This hearty steak and kidney pie is a meal in itself! Perfectly seasoned beef and potatoes simmer in a rich gravy beneath a flaky crust for a comforting, hearty old-fashioned pie. I like to use milder flavored lamb kidneys instead of beef.
