Synopsis:
Inspired by Victor Hugo’s classic novel, Disney brings the heroic adventures of Quasimodo, the gentle and lonely bell ringer of Notre Dame, to spectacular life. This critically acclaimed Disney masterpiece is an “uplifting, thrilling story with a heart-touching message that emerges from the comedy and song” (Roger Ebert, Chicago Sun-Times). At the urging of his hilarious gargoyle pals Victor, Hugo, and Laverne, Quasimodo leaves the solitary safety of his tower, venturing out to find his first true friend, the gypsy beauty Esmerelda. The most unlikely of heroes, Quasi fights to save the people and the city he loves and, in turn, helps us to see people for who they are, rather than how they appear. The star-studded voice cast includes Jason Alexander, Tom Hulce, Kevin Kline, and Demi Moore in a magnificent Disney musical from renowned composer Alan Menken.

No-Bake Mickey Mouse Tuna Tomatoes Recipe

I love Family.Disney.com! It is a great place to find fun recipes that kids will love to help make and eat. Like Disney says,

Kids are more tempted to try new foods when they are presented in a fun and attractive way

The Mickey Mouse Tuna Tomatoes certainly follow through with their ideals of fun and attractive. Like food connoisseur, kids eat with their eyes first. Sometimes a blob of tuna salad just doesn’t look appealing enough to eat. But add a tomato head and olive ears to form an abstract Mickey Mouse head and you have a recipe for fun that entices the imagination and taste buds. Of course, taste is a much need factor in the equation of trying new foods. We may eat with our eyes first, but we taste with our mouths. Good thing the Mickey Mouse Tuna Tomatoes taste delicious with the minced dill.

The Mickey Mouse Tuna Tomatoes takes, at the max, 20 minutes to make. There is no cooking or baking involved! Get everything chopped and ready to go and creating them will be a breeze.

tomato-mice-photo-420-an-spoonful

Ingredients:

  • 1 – 5 ounce can of Organic white tuna, drained (I find these at Costco, soy free)
  • 1/4 cup mayonnaise (homemade is the best! I have a full-proof, 30 second recipe for making mayo here: Click Me)
  • 2 Organic scallions, thinly sliced
  • 1 Organic rib of celery, diced
  • 1 teaspoon minced fresh dill
  • 10 Organic cocktail tomatoes (or large Organic cherry tomatoes)
  • 1 small can of Organic olives, sliced (you will need 20 whole slices)

    • Directions:

      1. Put tuna in a medium bowl and flake apart with a fork.
      2. Gently stir in the mayo, scallions, celery and dill until everything is evenly mixed. Set aside.
      3. Cut the tops off of the tomatoes and scoop out the seeds with a small spoon.
      4. Carefully fill tomatoes with the tuna salad, mounding it slightly at the top
      5. Cut a slit through the bottom of each olive slice. Place two olives on each tomato so that they look like mouse ears.
      6. Top each tomato with an additional dill leaf, if desired.
      Serve immediately or refrigerate until ready to serve (up to one day).

    The Mickey Mouse Tuna Tomatoes can turn into Mickey Mouse Egg Tomatoes by substituting the can of Tuna with 6 chopped boiled eggs. This changes the recipe from Tuna Salad to Egg Salad.

    The Mickey Mouse Tuna Tomatoes recipe was found at Family.Disney.com. I made a few changes to the ingredients by picking out organic vegetables and Tuna. Also, making homemade mayonnaise is so easy and only takes 30 seconds. Adding these changes makes the meal even more healthy and better for anyone enjoying a Mickey Mouse Tuna Tomato.

    Disney Descendants: “The Isle of the Lost”

    Descendants coming this summer to Disney Channel

    Coming this summer to the Disney Channel is Descendants, a movie about the most wicked Evil Disney Villains and their offspring. The Disney Villains and their kids are imprisoned on an island, forgotten by much of the world. But four children are offered a chance to leave the island and go to school in an idyllic kingdom. Will they follow in their parents footsteps, or discover that being good may not be so bad? Featuring characters such as: Evie the Daughter of the Evil Queen, Mai the daughter of Maleficent, Carlos the son of Cruella De Vil, Jay the son of Jafar, Audrey the daughter of Sleeping Beauty, Chad the son of Cinderella and Prince Charming, Jane the daughter of the Fairy Godmother, Ben the son of Queen Belle and King Adam, Lonnie the daughter of Mulan and Shang, and Doug the son of Dopey (yes Dopey has a son).

    The movie takes place after the book, “The Isle of the Lost” written by Melissa de la Cruz.

    Before Descendants airs on Disney Channel, grab a copy of the book The Isle of the Lost and catch up on the story of the Evil Offspring and their adventures to get the Dragon’s Eye.

    Synopsis of the book:

    Evil tree. Bad Apple?

    Twenty years ago, all the evil villains were banished from the kingdom of Auradon to the Isle of the Lost–a dark and dreary place protected by a force field that makes it impossible for them to leave. Stripped of their magical powers, the villains now live in total isolation, forgotten by the world.

    Mal learns from her mother, Maleficent, that the key to true darkness, the Dragon’s Eye, is located inside her scepter in the forbidden fortress on the far side of the island. The eye is cursed, and whoever retrieves it will be knocked into a deep sleep for a thousand years. But Mal has a plan to capture it. She’ll just need a little help from her “friends.” In their quest for the Dragon’s Eye, these four kids begin to realize that just because you come from an evil family tree, being good ain’t so bad. Amazon.com

    Read an Exclusive Excerpt from the Book by clicking the image below (found on movies.disney.com). It includes the prologue and Chapter 1. Trust me when I say, you will probably get hooked.

    Doctor Who Mr Potato Heads

    I think I may have found the coolest toys known to man or at the very least, close to it. And let me just say, even though they are for ages 3 and up, that “up” part includes all adults as well. From one of the last survivors of Galli-fry to a starch nemesis ready to Extermi-tator the universe, Doctor Who Mr. Potato Heads are here for all Whovians!

    I know the Daleks are supposed to be these nasty alien creatures bent on destroying anything that isn’t a Dalek, but in Potato form they are just so cute. I suppose in potato form they would not be considered this ultimate species and may have to extermi-tator themselves. If so, Dalek French fries for everyone! Then the 10th Potato Doctor can rest easy knowing the Daleks are fried.

    Dalek Sec is the ultimate Extermi-tator. All other potato heads are potato chips in the vast amount of galaxy dip. Be afraid at his mighty potatoness.
    Doctor Who - Mr. Potato Head Dalek Sec - Black with Additional Head Piece

    The Gold Dalek is The Doctor’s “starch” nemesis that will fry you up and serve you with ketchup! Or simply Extermi-tator you to the next dimension. Whatever the case, it looks to fry the universe in hot oil…I bet that would smell good for a split second.
    Doctor Who Mr. Potato Head - Gold Dalek Action Figure Toy - 7 Tall

    This is a big ball of wibbly wobbly…timey wimey…mashed potato stuff! The last known survivor of “Galli-Fry”, The tenth doctor, looks to save the universe from being fried for the weekend bbq. Speeding through time, The Doctor completes half baked plans and saves Earth. But when his potato life comes an end, The Doctor states he doesn’t want to go.
    Doctor Who Mr. Potato Head - The Tenth Doctor - Action Figure Toy - 6.5 Tall

    Each of these potato heads can be purchased from Amazon.com. They all feature special Doctor Who Pieces related to their character. Dalek Sec and the Gold Dalek have interchangeable Dalek head pieces featuring one with eyes and one without eyes. The tenth Doctor comes with his iconic messy hair, red shoes and sonic screwdriver. Now go have some wibbly wobbly timey wimey fun.

    Free Coloring Page Featuring a Flopper from Slugterra

    Floppers are known throughout the 99 caverns as the most useless slugs in Slugterra. In fact Pronto describes them as, “boneless, dimwitted powerless waste of space |and they| are the embarrassment of the slug species.” The sad thing is, Pronto may be right, because when a slug is called a “Flopper” (a derogatory word to describe something useless in combat), they take offense. However, Eli Shane believes otherwise noting that, “all slugs are useful. Even Floppers.” To Promto’s surprise, Eli has found great uses for floppers including a blinding technique, a slippery mess and the fact that they can stretch to extreme lengths.

    Flopper coloring Page Slugterra SKGaleana image

    The Flopper slug looks more like a booger in color and design. It is light olive green in color with dark olive green eye patches and stomach. The Flopper slug doesn’t have a velocimorph form making it rather usless in battle. It does however, splatter like a bug on a windshield once it hits something at 100 mph.

    Flopper Splat

    Check out the specs below for more details on the Flopper and it’s attacks.

    Flopper specs
    Flopper: Species number Unknown
    A Famous Slug of this species: Noodle
    Preferred Habitat: Everywhere
    Power Type: unknown but my guess is slime
    Element: Unknown
    Rarity: Common, probably the most common slug in Slugterra
    Protoform Abilities: Can be stretched into something needed, is also very Booger like, which can be used as something to make an opponent slip off balance like a banana peel
    Attacks: 1
    The Flopper doesn’t have a Velocimorph form but there are fans that believe the Flopper has a unique attack if aimed correctly.

      Stab Fire: can be shot into someone’s blaster causing the slug inside to backfire on their owner.

    Note: If someone has an allergy to peanut butter don’t fret, this recipe can still be made by replacing the peanut butter with 2 more marshmallows.

    Here are the kitchen supplies needed to make this recipe:

  • 1 small bowl
  • 1 saucepan
  • Spoon to stir a hot mixture

  • Heat the peanut butter, raspberry jam, and marshmallows in a small saucepan over medium-low heat, stirring continually, just until the mixture melts and becomes a smooth sauce.
  • Remove the pan from the heat and stir the sauce into the cup of graham cracker crumbs.
