HEALTHY MONSTER APPLES

Steps:

• Cut each apple in half and core the centers. Cut the top and bottom of each apple off at a slight inward angle so the apple halves stand upright. Cut away wedge-shaped slices from the centers using a paring knife to create a "mouth." Slice the wedges deep enough so a small hole is created in the center of each "V." Brush the exposed apple flesh with lemon juice to prevent browning.
• Stick the sunflower seeds into the apple's flesh to create "teeth."
• Insert a mango slice into the hole in the center of each apple to create a tongue. Add small dots of frosting to the backs of the candy eyeballs to secure them just above the mouth.
