Insect-Infested
Logs
Makes 4 serving(s)
WHAT'S IN IT?
4 (8-inch) celery stalks
1/2 cup creamy peanut butter
2 tablespoons currants
2 tablespoons apricot bits or 6 dried apricots
sliced into mini "worm-like" pieces
STUFF YOU NEED
Cutting board
Cutting knife
Butter knife
Dry measuring cups
Measuring spoons
4 snack-size plates
HOW TO PUT IT TOGETHER
1. Sit the celery stalks down on a cutting board.
Saw each celery stalk in half with a cutting knife
to make eight (4-inch) pieces.
2. With a butter knife, spread the
peanut butter from its measuring cup in each piece
of celery. These are your "logs."
3. On top of the peanut butter,
sprinkle the currants ("baby ants")
and apricots ("worms" or "larvae")
straight from their measuring spoon.
4. Lay two Insect-Infested Logs
onto each plate.
5. Take a bite—if you're not
too grossed out! They're weirdly wonderful!
