Directions:

  1. Mix carrots and green onions into the veggie dip.
  2. Spread on the wraps using a spoon or spatula.
  3. Create the snail’s spiral shell by tightly rolling the wrap.
  4. Insert three toothpicks evenly across the roll, leaving a portion of the toothpick exposed.
  5. Cut each roll into three pieces, so that each piece has a toothpick.
  6. Give the snails a head by attaching a cherry tomato to the exposed end of each toothpick.

To Serve:

  • Even though your snail moves slowly, place your snail in a zip-top bag so that
    it does not get away. Remember to remove the toothpick before eating.

Fun Fact: Make red and green snails using tomato and spinach tortillas!
