April Fools’ Recipes

March 31, 2010 by Carrie Sellman

April 1st is coming up and we all know what that means.  A day full of playful pranks and mischief to mark April Fools’ Day.  To help get you ready, today we’re featuring some surefire recipes for fun from FamilyFun.  Your kiddos will definitely be surprised by these little tricks up your sleeve.  Or better yet, get them involved in creating these deceptive treats and let everyone play a trick on Dad.
April Fools Recipes

{Clockwise, starting at top left:}
  • Faux French Fries are really a sugary treat ready to dip into a ketchup look alike – strawberry jam.  Find the recipe here on FamilyFun.
  • Fakin’ and Eggs is really a sweet dessert disguised as breakfast.  Find the recipe here on FamilyFun.
  • Your kids will suddenly love veggies!  This deceptive Cashew Chicken Stir-Fry is actually a concoction of fruit rollups, sunflower seeds and dried apple rings.  Find the recipe here on FamilyFun.
  • Surprise someone with this ‘Appealing Prank’.  They will peal their morning banana to find it already sliced.  What, how did that happen?  Find the directions here on FamilyFun.

What foolery are you cooking up for April Fools’ Day?

    Very fun! – and sorry that I’m just now seeing these. Maybe April Fools Day will have to return in a month or two. 🙂
