Muffin Tin Monday--Planes, Trains, and Automobiles

Muffin Tin Monday at Her Cup Overfloweth


So, here's my attempt at being creative with food! Not very pretty, but it was fun to put it together for my son! I made an airplane using a banana for the plane body, peanut butter for "glue", graham crackers for wings, and raisins for windows. My son pointed to the sky and made his "whooshing" airplane noise. :) I also made a train/truck (or whatever you think it looks like...) using graham crackers, Cheez-Its, peanut butter, raisins, and string cheese. I had to put it on a napkin, otherwise it would have fallen apart in the tin! I filled the other tins with extra raisins, Disney Cars themed graham crackers, mac and cheese using wheel-shaped pasta, and extra string cheese cut in circles to resemble wheels. Well, I think I was a little more excited about this than my son, but he did enjoy the graham crackers. I gave him this meal on Saturday night, but I think next time I'll give him this muffin tin meal for breakfast since that's when he's the most hungry. :) Enjoy!
