Tips

Directions

Step 1

Slice the pear in half lengthwise core remove the stem and set each half on a plate with the cut side down. This is the body of the turkey. Cut 2 raisins in half to make 4 eyes and set the eyes onto the narrower part of the pear. Cut a small slice from one end of the 2 remaining raisins and stick a raisin below the eyes to make beaks. Press a broken piece of walnut bumpy side up into each pear below the beaks to make wattles.

Step 2

Trim the dried apricots into 4 feet with 3 fat toes and place two feet at the bottom of each pear. Arrange apple wedges alternating with grapefruit sections in a fan shape around the top of the turkey for feathers.
