Our Foodimal - the Saladder!

Fans of Cloudy with a Chance of Meatballs 2 will be familiar with the fabulous Foodimals which are the stars of the show.  Inspired by the imaginative food/animal hybrids we have invented our very own Foodimal ... a cross between a salad and an adder....a Saladder!

Part Salad, Part Adder...it's a Saladder!

Not only did the kids have a lot of fun helping create the colourful creation, the Saladder encouraged fussy eater Freddy to tuck into grated carrot, grated cheese, boiled egg, beetroot, cucumber, grapes, spinach leaves, red pepper, blueberries and wholewheat bread.  He even said that he wanted 'snake salad' for his dinner everyday!  Definitely a big hit with him and something we will be making again and again, using a variety of different salad vegetables and fruits to encourage the children to try something new.

Making and serving up a Saladder whilst watching Cloudy with the Chance of Meatballs 2 has proved a most agreeable way to spend a Sunday afternoon, which left my little boy very happy indeed!  Who'd have known healthy food could be so much fun!




This is our entry for the Tots 100 Foodimal competition to celebrate the release of Cloudy with a Chance of Meatballs 2.
