Recipe: How to make Munchkin's + Pipsqueak's salad

So I thought this would be cool to do. This is a recipe for Munchkin's salad exactly the way that I do it. I just thought it would be cool to show you guys a good salad for rabbit's and how I make it.

You will need:
2-3 medium or large romaine lettuce leaves
1 large celery stalk with leaves
cilantro or parsley
carrot
cucumber
a knife
a strainer
optional: a measuring cup

Step 1: Get out all of the ingredients and things you will need.


Step 2: Cut about an inch long piece of unpeeled (but washed) carrot into slices. Take about a little less than a quarter of a slice and set aside for Pipsqueak. Cut one thick slice of cucumber into quarters.



Step 3: Wash the lettuce and dry it off.



Step 4: Wash off the celery stalk. The kind I get is pretty dirty so I scrub it off with a paper towel too.


Step 5: Cut up the celery stalk into small pieces making sure to set aside a small piece for Pipsqueak. Cut up the celery leaves and cilantro/parsley to fit into the bowl.



Step 6: Assemble the salad! (and set aside a small piece of lettuce for Pipsqueak) And if you want to know if you have the right amounts you can measure the veggies with a measuring cup. Munchkin's salad is about two cups. After a while of making bunny salads you shouldn't need a cup anymore.

To assemble: Place chopped celery into the bottom of the bowl


Add celery leaves


Add cilantro/parsley, carrots, and cucumber


Put the lettuce on the plate


Feed it to the bunny!


Now take Pipsqueaks pieces and feed her:


Now clean up the cutting board:



Note: If I have other veggies in the fridge like broccoli or bell peppers I put some of that in his salad too.

  1. I really like how you showed us this recipe - great visuals! Especially Pipsqueak's amount, after seeing all that Munchkin gets. Good reminder to be mindful of portion sizes.
