Make kid-size cornucopias filled with yummy vegetables.   #### **Ingredients:**   - Nonstick cooking spray - 1 cup of water - Choice of small fresh vegetables - Choice of cut vegetables - Refrigerator puff pastry dough - 1 egg #### **Utensils:**   - Oven preheated to 375 degrees - Baking sheet - Whisk - Spatula - Small bowl - Pastry brush - Knife and cutting board - Cone-shaped paper cups - Oven mitt #### **Process:**   1. Spray a light coating of cooking spray on the baking sheet and the outside of the cup. Set aside. 2. Cut the pastry dough into strips about 1/4th inch wide. Beginning at the point of the cup, wrap the pastry dough around the cup. Overlap the dough to resemble a cornucopia. 3. Wet the end of the dough with a little water and press so it sticks together to end the design. 4. Break the egg over the bowl. Add water and whisk. Set aside. 5. Carefully place the pastry cornucopias onto the baking sheet. 6. Dip the pastry brush into the egg and water mixture and brush the outside of the pastry cornucopias. 7. Place the cornucopias in the oven for 10 minutes. 8. Transfer the cornucopias to a platter and cool completely. 9. Remove the paper cups. Arrange the miniature cut vegetable pieces inside each cornucopia. 10. Serve as an accompaniment to a main meal or as a tasty snack. #### Article Categories ![afterschool advocacy icon](https://www.extendednotes.com/hubfs/ExtendED%20Notes%20Blog/afterschool%20advocacy%20icon.svg) After School Advocacy ![bullying safety icon](https://www.extendednotes.com/hubfs/ExtendED%20Notes%20Blog/bullying%20safety%20icon.svg) Bullying and Safety ![leadership icon](https://www.extendednotes.com/hubfs/ExtendED%20Notes%20Blog/leadership%20icon.svg) Leadership & Professional Development ![parental engagement icon](https://www.extendednotes.com/hubfs/ExtendED%20Notes%20Blog/parental%20engagement%20icon.svg) Parental Engagement ![physical activity icon](https://www.extendednotes.com/hubfs/ExtendED%20Notes%20Blog/physical%20activity%20icon.svg) Physical Activity ![program development icon](https://www.extendednotes.com/hubfs/ExtendED%20Notes%20Blog/program%20development%20icon.svg) Program Development ![social emotional learning icon](https://www.extendednotes.com/hubfs/ExtendED%20Notes%20Blog/social%20emotional%20learning%20icon.svg) Social-Emotional Learning ![stem icon](https://www.extendednotes.com/hubfs/ExtendED%20Notes%20Blog/stem%20icon.svg) STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering, Math) ![teaching strategies icon](https://www.extendednotes.com/hubfs/ExtendED%20Notes%20Blog/teaching%20strategies%20icon.svg) Teaching Strategies ![extended notes fb page banner](https://www.extendednotes.com/hs-fs/hubfs/ExtendED%20Notes%20Blog/extended%20notes%20fb%20page%20banner.png?width=342&height=130&name=extended%20notes%20fb%20page%20banner.png) [Follow Page ](https://www.facebook.com/385747254841303?ref=embed_page) ![ExtendedNotes_Logo_Knowledge Base-01](https://www.extendednotes.com/hs-fs/hubfs/ExtendedNotes_Logo_Knowledge%20Base-01.jpg?width=300&height=300&name=ExtendedNotes_Logo_Knowledge%20Base-01.jpg) ExtendED Notes 974 followers Connect with us to get the latest Articles & Insights. ## Related Articles ![related post image](https://www.extendednotes.com/hs-fs/hubfs/Imported_Blog_Media/rabbit_hole-2__800x400.jpg?width=352&name=rabbit_hole-2__800x400.jpg) #### Rabbit Hole Promote teamwork and creativity with this fun, yet challenging after-school fitness activity for...
