Salads

Ingredients

Directions

lettuce
mayonnaise
chopped peanuts
Place leaf of lettuce on plate. Top with a slice of pineapple.
Peel bananas; scoop a tiny bit from each end of banana with a teaspoon to make a tiny crater. Cut bananas in half, crosswise. Place cut end of banana in hole of pineapple slice. Put maraschino cherry on top of banana in the little crater (to make the candle wick). Spread a small amount of mayonnaise along the side of the banana (to make the dripping wax). Sprinkle with chopped peanuts.
Repeat for each salad.
Chee Chee made these often and would always let the children help make them.
