You can use little chocolate chips for eyes and buttons or substitute some berries, raisins, or currants.<\/p>\n http:\/\/www.pinterest.com\/pin\/443815738250193218\/<\/a><\/span><\/p>\n <\/p>\n Turn all your little broccoli trees into a Christmas tree with the help of some grape tomatoes, pretzel sticks, and of course some yellow peppers for the star on top! For a snowy looking ground add some cauliflower to the base. http:\/\/www.pinterest.com\/pin\/405042560211447280\/<\/a><\/span><\/p>\n These adorable little penguins are so simple to make. Just get a little ball of cream cheese and add a sliced olive and some carrot pieces together. Layer them all onto a toothpick and your cream cheese penguins will surely be a crowd pleaser!<\/p>\n http:\/\/www.pinterest.com\/pin\/378583912400230788\/<\/a><\/span><\/p>\n This holiday fruit tree is much simpler than it looks and makes a great center piece for any gathering. By placing an apple at the bottom, you can add as many toothpicks as you want with the other fruits sticking out. Add a pear on top of the apple with a few tooth picks to help support, and add all the kiwi, strawberries, grapes, cantaloupe, and blueberries you can!<\/p>\n http:\/\/www.pinterest.com\/pin\/135319163779403000\/<\/a><\/span><\/p>\n Instead of making an apple pie loaded with fat and calories, keep things fresher with this delicious creation. Slice all different kinds of apples for color (granny smith, golden delicious, gala, McIntosh, or whatever other kind you love) and arrange them in a spiral sort of design. Melt down some dark chocolate (you can find types with very little to no sugar added which is a definite bonus) and drizzle it on in circles. For some extra garnish add some crushed nuts on top. No one will be missing those pies once you have this on the table! http:\/\/www.pinterest.com\/pin\/557601997585706369\/<\/a><\/span><\/p>\n Who says this summer staple fruit can’t be enjoyed all year? Use a sliced watermelon to act as a snowman body and bowls at the same time! You can fill it with whatever you like, these strawberries and blueberries really make him look bright delicious though. http:\/\/www.pinterest.com\/pin\/375628425142196292\/<\/a><\/span><\/p>\n Grape Santas are some of the cutest and simplest ideas ever. Just put a grape, banana slice, strawberry and little marshmallow and you’ve got it!<\/p>\n http:\/\/www.pinterest.com\/pin\/73042825178399282\/<\/a><\/span><\/p>\n Sticking with the grapes, arrange them into a tree with some raspberries for ornaments and a little piece of starfruit to top it off. This grape-tree will certainly work well at any holiday get-together.<\/p>\n http:\/\/www.pinterest.com\/pin\/378091331191401484\/<\/a><\/span><\/p>\n These are a great addition to lunches or snacks for the kids! All they need is a little decoration. Draw on the cheesestick wrappers, add a little paper hat, and ribbon scarf and he’s good to go!<\/p>\n http:\/\/www.pinterest.com\/pin\/213498838556774343\/<\/a><\/span><\/p>\n This one could hardly get any simpler! Banana and strawberry slices on a few toothpicks make an adorable healthy candy cane.<\/p>\n http:\/\/www.pinterest.com\/pin\/110267890850276792\/<\/a><\/span><\/p>\n <\/p>\n Want to incorporate a bunch of different vegetables? No problem! This veggie tree has celery, carrots, red peppers, edamame, cucumbers, and a little bit of yellow pepper to top it all off. Feel free to make some swaps and add tomatoes for the red peppers or green peppers for the edamame depending on your preferences.<\/p>\n http:\/\/www.pinterest.com\/pin\/390546598908070108\/<\/a><\/span><\/p>\n Similar to the other grape tree, this on adds a little more variety with both red and green grapes and also some different types of cheeses. If you’re having a more adult friendly party and are enjoying some wine, this grape cheese tree will definitely be a winner!<\/p>\n http:\/\/www.pinterest.com\/pin\/92042386108140436\/<\/a><\/span><\/p>\n Bring back a little summer feel with these strawberry banana pops! Finally use those popsicle sticks you’ve been saving and make some super cute treats. http:\/\/www.pinterest.com\/pin\/459859811925578609\/<\/a><\/span><\/p>\n With just a little celery, cauliflower, and carrots you can easily make your own snowman tray! Don’t forget to add\u00a0a couple olives and a cherry tomato for some fun features too. http:\/\/www.pinterest.com\/pin\/442478732113934975\/<\/a><\/span><\/p>\n Don’t forget how great melons can be and how easily they can be cut into fun shapes. Cut\u00a0up watermelon, honey dew, and pineapple pieces and arrange them into the top middle and bottom of a snowman! Then add some grapes for buttons and eyes and fill in all around with whatever other fruits you want.\u00a0 http:\/\/www.pinterest.com\/pin\/496029346432989614\/<\/a><\/span><\/p>\n Looking for a super simple way to dress up a supermarket vegetable tray?

Apple santa is in a gourd sleigh with banana blades. You can use cheese for his beard and the top of his hat and blueberries for eyes. His little penguin friends are just oranges with some of the peels removed. Use carrots for noses and blueberries for eyes and whatever cute fruits on top! Lemon piece or a few grapes look adorable.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n http:\/\/www.pinterest.com\/pin\/20688479513983296\/<\/a><\/span><\/p>\n These snowmen are made with a few hard boiled eggs, some carrot slices, and a few peppercorns.
