That is a seriously cute idea. My kids would flip their lids if I made them one. I think I might try it to see 🙂
This is so cute. I am pretty sure every little kid will love to eat their veggies if it was presented to them this way. You did a great job!
How cute! my son would love it if I did this for him! I pack a tortilla in his lunch each day, this would be a fun way to get him to eat it!
When I saw your post, I was expecting a recipe for candies, but this sounds fabulous too. I’d never even heard of the movie The Good Dinosaur.
That is so cute! I love that you used the salad greens as a jungle! That’s adorable.
What a cute idea! My kids would love getting this as a snack, and then they’d have just as much fun pulling it apart to eat it :-).
This is such a great idea! It would be perfect for lunch with my kids.

What a very creative food art! Oh my, I saw the TV advertisement and I was like, our family got to see that movie!!! I’m so excited!! I bet it’ll one of those high-rated family films!
How cute is this! I do find that tortillas are like construction paper and that you can cut them into many shapes for many uses.
This is a great idea. I would cut several of the dinosaurs and let my kids make their own wrap. You can’t go wrong with fun foods.
