Fun Thanksgiving Treat Kids can Make

1-1/2 teaspoons process cheese sauce


1 rich round cracker

1 bite-size rich round cheese cracker sandwich

5 to 10 crunchy cheese-flavored snacks, canned shoestring potatoes, and/or pretzel sticks

2 corn nuts or peanuts

1 small piece yellow sweet pepper or carrot

1 piece pimiento

2 raisins

For the turkey body, spread cheese sauce on 1 side of the rich round cracker with a table knife. Ror the head, press the cracker sandwich into the cheese sauce. For the tail feathers, place the cheese-flavored snacks, shoestring potatoes, and/or the pretzel sticks about half of the way around the head. For the feet, press the corn nuts or peanuts into the cheese sauce, extending the nuts slightly over the bottom edge of the cracker. For the beak, place the piece of yellow sweet pepper or carrot on cutting board. Using a sharp knife, cut a small triangular piece that looks like a beak. Next cut a small piece from the pimiento for the wattle. Use a little additional cheese sauce to attach the beak, the wattle, and the two raisin eyes to the head. Makes 1 turkey.
