I was visiting my friend Amy’s blog, when I saw her post on Creative Kid Feeding. I decided to give the cottage cheese snowman a try for the kids lunch, and they were definitely fans!
I used a half cup cottage cheese for the snowman face, raisins for his eyes, orange bell pepper for his nose, and red bell pepper for his mouth.
Shock of all shocks? My son actually ate bell pepper! I’ve NEVER been able to get him to eat bell pepper!
Next time, I am definitely adding the rest of the body and using the celery to make arms. Maybe I can get him to eat green, afterall! I recently purchased the Yum-Yum Bento Box Cookbook and have been having a ton of fun cutting the kids sandwiches and such with my Wilton 101 Cookie Cutter Set.
I am amazed at the things I’ve been able to get them to eat because it’s cute.
How cute!
I love the cottage cheese snowman!
Even I would totally eat that! I love cottage cheese, so you could throw anything inside it and I’d be happy.
That is so cool! Isn’t it amazing to see what they will eat when it’s presented in a great way? I guess we adults are like that too! I got a kick out of you using my post for inspiration! 🙂
That is adorable! The problem would be getting my kids to actually eat cottage cheese.
Thanks for dropping by, Amy.
LOL. Yah, some kids won’t touch the stuff!
Spencer would love this. He is 3 so a bit more likely to eat cottage cheese. Jason on the other hand would not consider it because he is uber picky!

Mmm what a great idea! I’ll have to try that on my kids
What a cute idea. I wish I like cottage cheese but I don’t.
That is great, I did that kind of stuff when the kids were little but it did not work LOL!
That is so adorable! I would totally make this for my own lunch just because it’s cute, LOL!
That is SO cute! My kids would love that!
What a great idea!
Adorable. Great idea for the kids.
GREAT idea! I personally prefer my cottage cheese sweet with fruit, but this is a wonderful idea, especially for winter!
What a fun way to hide the cottage cheese in something fun!
