Several years ago, my son had a cooking series on my blog called Cooking with Kyle. He was very interested in cooking, and developing his own recipes. While he only did it for a few years, he has lots of good recipes on this blog. (which you can see below)
One of those recipes was this fun Christmas appetizer Reindeer on Rye. (you can seen the original post here.)
I'm thinking this might have been one of his last cooking posts. He was 15 in this photo. Its so nice to see his face without a lot of facial hair. He has had a beard for several years now, so I have not seen his clean shaven face in a long time.
Kyle was hungry, and since it was just a few days before Christmas he decided to make something Christmas themed.
The first thing he did was sandwiches on rye bread. The size of the loaf is much smaller than regular bread, and perfect for an appetizer. He chose to use turkey, swiss, miracle whip and Dijon mustard.
He cut out circles from mozzerella slices with the center part of an apple slicer - corer. The noses are cherry tomatoes sliced in half.
He has some trouble figuring out the what to use for the pupil. He originally thought pepperoni, but it did not work right. Even though he was not a fan of black olives, we both agreed they looked the best.
The last step was to add the antlers. We only had mini pretzels on hand so the antlers were a little small, but they still were cute.
Would you like to see some of Kyle's other Cooking with Kyle posts. He has some great family recipes, that you can make with your kids. You can see the posts below.
