How to Make<\/strong><\/p>\n

\"Rusty<\/p>\n

Step One:<\/strong> Using scissors and paring knife, cut and prep vegetables:<\/p>\n

Cut a small flat surface on the back of all three tomatoes. On one tomato, cut a wedge for Whirly\u2019s mouth. Cut a second flat back on one of the other tomatoes.<\/p>\n

Slice 4 black olives width-wise into rings.<\/p>\n

Cut green beans into two pieces, one larger than the other.<\/p>\n

\"Rusty<\/p>\n

Peel lemon peel into long, 1\/2″ strips and cut into four\u00a0petal shapes for propellers. Thinly slice remaining strips and curl around chopstick.<\/p>\n

Peel lime peel into long zest strips, then slice and curl around a chopstick.<\/p>\n

Slice and cut orange and green bell peppers into gear\u00a0shapes, using photos for reference.<\/p>\n

\"Rusty<\/p>\n

Step Two:\u00a0<\/strong>With piping tip, cut four\u00a0circles from one side of the egg white.\u00a0Slice off tip of the egg to make one larger circle. Then, cut a larger smile shape from the remaining white, using the above photo for reference.<\/p>\n

Step Three: <\/strong>Cut notches into all four\u00a0edges of lavash bread with a paring knife.\u00a0<\/strong>Cut shapes from the nori sheet for the eyes, stomach, belt and mouth, using the photo for reference.<\/p>\n

Step Four<\/strong>: Start assembling Ray with larger piece of green bean with lime twists. Connect his body by inserting the bottom of the green bean into the top of the mini bell pepper. Insert the top of the green bean into the bottom of the tomato.<\/p>\n

Step Five:\u00a0<\/strong>Place egg top on flat surface of tomato and add nori face. Add cut cherry tomato, lime curl, and olive slice to complete face.<\/p>\n
