Ingredients
1 small to medium apple
10 mandarin orange segments, drained if canned
Directions
Wash your hands thoroughly with soap and clean running water.
Rinse the apple under cool running water and pat dry with a clean cloth.
Carefully cut the apple in half lengthwise using a sharp knife. One half will form the turtle's shell.
Place the apple half cut-side down on a small plate to serve as the turtle's body and shell.
Arrange the mandarin orange segments around the apple half to create the turtle's features: position one segment at the top as the head, place four segments on the sides and bottom as the four legs, and position one segment at the rear as the tail.
Serve immediately and enjoy this creative fruit snack.
