Melon Brain

littlemafia's Note:

Creep out your Halloween guest! it's similar to the thai carving. Older kids can do this too. I added the Kool Aid coz the recipe needed more than one ingredient so it's totally optional. Can be sprinkled on the brain on the red parts to highlight .

• Total Time: 10 mins
• Prep Time: 10 mins
• Cook Time: 0 mins

Ingredients:

Yield: 1 brain

• 1 small watermelon
• 1 red Kool-Aid

Directions:

1. Use a vegetable peeler to remove the entire green rind, exposing the inner white rind.
2. Slice off the bottom of the melon to create a flat base that will keep it from rolling. With a toothpick, outline squiggly furrows that resemble the folded surface of a brain.
3. Finally, carve narrow channels along the tracings with a sharp paring knife to expose the pink fruit beneath the rind.
