Eat Your Veggies! {April's Fools Day Treats}

Are you celebrating April Fool's Day today with a special meal--maybe some mashed potatoes and mixed vegetables?
Or...maybe you'd rather have them for dessert?  :)

These cupcakes aren't an original idea {I believe they come from the brilliant Hello Cupcake authors}, but they sure were fun to make and eat!  The peas and carrots are made with orange Starburst candies cut into quarters for the carrots.  The peas are green Skittles (you can also use the green lime Runts candies if you can find them). The mashed potatoes are made with a creamy frosting, slightly flattened yellow Starbursts, and a caramel syrup (like you use for an ice cream topping).

But, wait!  You can't have side dishes without the main dish, can you?
The perfect thing to serve--spaghetti and meatballs!  Yum!

Amy made the delicious looking spaghetti and meatballs--vanilla frosting, chocolate candies, jam, and topped with white chocolate shavings.

Happy April Fool's!
