Nerdy Nummies star Rosanna Pansino recently created appetizers inspired by the iconic video game Super Mario, which she aptly dubbed 'Super Mario Fire Flower Appetizer.' And just as the title of the food is a mouthful, so are the appetizers themselves.
The delicious snacks take form of the flower that helps Super Mario become a flame thrower in the game. It probably won't have the same effect on you but it will throw your taste buds some extra spice, because the snack comes with an optional spicy dip.
To make the appetizer all you need to do is cut cucumbers, carrots and cheese into their desired shapes and stack them together with a toothpick to make them look the the Fire Flowers.
