Did the title catch your attention? It caught mine. Maybe I have a warped sense of humor, or maybe these appealed to me because of personal experience. Growing up in the mountains with my dog, Bandit, left me with a lasting aversion to ticks. Whatever the case, I knew I had to make this recipe.
Yesterday I checked out "The Scout's Outdoor Cookbook" from the library. I don't buy most books I check out, but I'm definitely going to buy this one. There are a TON of great recipes for the outdoors and camping...I can't wait to try more. Anyways, here's the recipe for "Ticks on a Toilet Seat."
Ticks on a Toilet Seat
The Scout's Outdoor Cookbook
Preparation:
1. Remove core from apples. (My apple corer also cuts up my entire apple, which I didn't want to do, so I just used a knife.)
2. Cut apples crosswise into slices about 1/4-inch thick to form circles with holes in the middle...sort of like toilet seats!
3. Spread peanut butter on apple slices and then decorate with raisins to look like the "ticks" on the "toilet seats."
Enjoy! My son did.

Wow, that title definitely got my attention, too! Your blog looks so nice, Laura! I admire you for your menu planning...great habit to cultivate. Wish I had started doing that 30 years ago. My problem is that I often start thinking about the night's meal when 4:00 or 5:00 rolls around. Bad, bad, bad!
Fun! I love it when you eat and have fun at the same time! Great recipe!
Fantastic newness on this site! I LOVE IT!! Laura - WELL DONE!
And, these look yummy. ;-)
