Over at Muffin Tin Monday today, the theme is Christmas Stories. I decided to tell the ultimate Christmas story today with our Muffin Tin Meal... The Nativity! :-)
My daughter loved it, and actually completely refused to eat baby Jesus ;-).
In My Tin:
Mary, Jesus, and Joseph- All made from pigs in a blanket with dotted eyes made from colored decorating gel.
3 Kings, symbolized by 3 crowns of cheese toast and an animal cracker camel.
An angel cut from cheese with a cookie cutter.
2 animal cracker sheep to stand for the shepherds.
To make the muffin tin look like a stable, I topped it with 2 pretzel rods and a the star of Bethlehem, cut from another piece of cheese.
I think some of this would be cute food for children Christmas parties. I wish I had had time to make the angel a beautiful sugar cookie, but you can only do what you can do, right? I thought it would have also been cool to have a little candy cane in the shepherd's cup. Can't wait to see everyone else's creations! :-)

Aw, I wouldn't have been able to eat baby Jesus either.
That is such a wonderful tin! That is too sweet that your daughter wouldn't eat baby Jesus.
Very cute and creative! Good job!
What a great tin! I love how you made the stable with pretzel rods.
gwt out of town, that is so creative! I absolutely love the Holy Family, although I didn't make mine a nativity because I thought it might be weird to eat baby jesus too :)
Great tin!
My eldest actually declare "Im going to eat baby Jesus first" *blush* was soo funny/wrong, I din't know what to say to that...
I love your tin! What a creative idea!
Great job-I agree-very creative!
Such a cute idea. If our preschool Christmas party wasn't tomorrow I would try it. I'll definitely file the idea for next year!! Thanks for sharing.
