    Looking for a fun foodie project to make with your kids? Try this healthy fruit meal! 

    I always have lots of fruit hanging around in the kitchen, so I decided to have some fun and play with the ingredients a little more than I normally do.

    In a just a few minutes, you can put together a cool and tasty burger, and french fries. Of course fries!

    I mixed some mango with coconut, agave and mint for a fresh and sweet burger.

    I added some kiwis and pineapple to give a little tartness, and I made the fries out of a golden apple.

    I hope you really like it and will try this at home, I'm pretty sure it will WOW your kids! 

    fruit happy meal made with apple and filled with pineapple coconut burger and kiwi slices.
