This cute bonnet is made from cream cheese, pineapple, green onion and basil. I have made this recipe and used it for an Easter Buffet. This recipe and photo is from Land O'Lakes.

- TIPS: Best to make day before- and keep covered until ready to use then decorate and place veggies and munchies on. To create carrot ribbon, peel one carrot. Use vegetable peeler to make long flat slices; attach where crown and brim meet. --- Pull table knife from hat ribbon to edge of brim to create a decorative design on hat brim.
