There's more than one way to get creative in the kitchen! Make cute little sheep from cauliflower florets. All you need are black olives, fresh cauliflower florets, raisins, dry black-eyed peas, and toothpicks. Olives and black-eyed peas become the heads and eyes. The legs are raisins. Don't play with your food? Well, not this time. So much fun.

Time 10m

Yield 1

Number Of Ingredients 5

2 black olives
2 dry black-eyed peas
1 cauliflower floret, stem removed
16 raisins
6 toothpicks

Steps:

  • Hold 1 olive, pitted end facing up as the top of the head. Use a small paring knife to make 2 shallow holes the size of a black-eyed pea in the 'face' of the 'head'. Press each black-eyed pea into each hole, black eye facing outward.
  • Cut 2 slits from the top of the pitted hole of the 'head' to be placeholders for the 'ears'. Cut 2 small lengthwise strips from the remaining black olive, and discard the remaining olive piece. Slice olive flesh away from each strip to create sheep 'ears'. Slide the 'ears' into the slits on the 'head'.
  • Press 2 toothpicks close together into one end of the cauliflower floret and secure the olive 'head' onto the toothpicks.
  • Thread 3 raisins lengthwise onto each of the 4 remaining toothpicks. Skewer 1 final raisin, crosswise, at the base of each toothpick to create 'hooves'.
  • Secure the toothpick 'legs' into the bottom core of the cauliflower floret to create 4 equal-length 'legs'.

The cauliflower sheep was a cute and creative dish, but it was a bit too much work for the end result. I think there are better ways to spend my time in the kitchen.

This recipe was a bit too complicated for my liking. I think there are easier ways to make a cauliflower dish that is just as tasty.

This recipe was a disaster! The cauliflower didn't hold its shape and the mashed potatoes were runny. I don't recommend this recipe.

The cauliflower sheep was a fun and creative dish, but it was a bit too time-consuming for a weeknight meal. I might try it again on a weekend when I have more time.

This recipe was a great way to get my kids to eat their vegetables! They loved the sheep-shaped cauliflower and the roasted garlic and herbs made it extra tasty.

Cute idea, but the execution was lacking. The cauliflower was overcooked and the mashed potatoes were lumpy.

The cauliflower sheep was a bit too bland for my taste, even with the roasted garlic and herbs. I think it could use some additional seasoning.
