Quail Egg Snowmen

Servings: 8 -10

Ingredients

  • 16-20 large quail eggs hard boiled, cooled, and peeled
  • peppercorns
  • rosemary sprigs
  • about 10-12 pitted black olives
  • 1 small carrot
  • bamboo skewers

Instructions

  • Slice the olives so that you have 8-10 1/4-inch-thick slices. Add a small end of olive to each to make it resemble a hat as shown in the pictures.
  • Cut your carrot into tiny pieces to make the little noses.
  • Oh so slightly cut off the top and bottom of the eggs.
  • Insert a skewer through the center of 2 eggs to create your snow men.
  • Stick the tip of the skewer in the eggs to make small holes for the buttons and nose. Place a peppercorn into each hole and a piece of carrot for the nose.
  • Stick a small rosemary sprig on the side for the broom.
  • Add your olive hat to finish the snowman look, then place it on a platter.
  • Repeat with remaining ingredients.
  • Have fun!
