Instructions
Step 1: Grab a rectangular tray
Use any rectangular tray or cutting board as your base to mimic the shape of the American flag.
Step 2: Lay out the stripes
Create alternating red and white stripes using the strawberries (red side up) and mini powdered donuts.
Don’t worry if you can’t fit all 13 stripes—just get the pattern going and it will look great!
Step 3: Add the stars
In the top-left corner, place a cluster of blueberries to represent the stars. You can pop them into a small rectangular bowl or just group them together in a rectangle shape.

This makes a perfect breakfast tray or mid-morning snack.
Pair it with scrambled eggs, sausage, or smoothies for a more balanced meal—and let the kids dig in!
Simple, sweet, and just a little bit magical.
