Smiley Citrus and Kiwi Slices Plate

Recipe

Ingredients:

2 golden kiwis, peeled and sliced

1 navel orange, peeled and segmented

1 mandarin orange or tangerine, peeled and segmented

2 slices mango or persimmon, cut into smiley face shapes (or small fruit molds)

Edible eyes or food-safe markers (optional, for smiley faces)

Optional Garnish:

Fresh mint

Squeeze of lime juice for added brightness

Directions:

Wash and dry all fruits. Peel the kiwis, oranges, and mandarin. Slice kiwis into even discs.

Gently segment the oranges and mandarin, removing seeds and any extra pith for a clean presentation.

On a long white plate or rectangular platter, alternate rows of kiwi and citrus slices in a sunburst or fan-like pattern.

Place smiley face fruit slices (using mango or molded persimmon) at the ends for a playful touch. If using edible eyes or food-safe pens, draw on the faces just before serving.

Garnish with mint leaves or a light spritz of lime juice for an extra pop of freshness.

Serve immediately for best presentation.
