I have apicture of this but i am not sure how to post it and it is very large so it would have to be down sized.
Anyway it is a veggie and dip platter in the shape of a turkey,I make them for Christmas and Thanksgiving.
I will try to make this as understandable as possible without a pic.
Body is 1 fairly large loaf of bread
head - an Italian roll
Neck - you could use a bread stick or a carrot
eyes- 2 whole cloves
beak - shaped carrot
feathers - carrots (peeled and sliced diagonally), 1 ea yellow, orange and red pepper (cut lengthwise in 1/2 inch strips pointed at the end), snow peas
Tail - one bunch of celery with leaves attached.
First time I made this I didnt make a dip I just toothpicked it all together But thats a pain when it comes to eating it.
Now I make a dip (2 pkgs cream cheese and 2 pkgs veggie dip (the powder dip mixes - any type -I use dill)
Spread it all over the large loaf of bread.
Stick in the tail ( celery with leaves in the end - where the tail should be)
- stick in the carrot for the neck - place the roll on top for the head.
- to put on the feathers start at the bottom and layer the veggies over the body in the dip (the dip - holds the veggies in place)
