You’ll never look at vegetables and rice the same way again.
Samantha Lee is something of an online food artist celebrity, with over 732,000 followers on Instagram that are constantly hungry to see more of her work.
We saw some of her unbelievable creations a few years ago when she was just getting popular, but she’s kept up the amazing job and is still uploading photos of her inspirational – and edible! – masterpieces.
Here’s just a sampling of some of the Samatha’s delicious dishes:
▼ Totoro and some susuwatari making a plate
of healthy food look much more appealing.
▼ Have to admit, I never thought “eggs” when looking at
Wall-E and Eve, but now it’s all I can see.
▼ Oppa Gangnam Rice Ball!
▼ A nice food tribute to Muhammad Ali
Eat your greens, kids!
▼ Under the sea! Under the Sea! Nobody beat us, fry us, or eat us-
Oh. Wait.
▼ This wasn’t made by Hogwart’s kitchen elves,
even though it may look like it!
▼ Edward Veggie Hands, decidedly less scary –
and far more healthy – than the scissor alternative.
▼ I really like the spread on the bread and the crusts here
o get the look of the cow down perfectly. Such creativity!
▼ And finally….
I don’t know about you, but I would happily scarf down any of those meals! If you’re looking for a way to get some little ones of yours – or maybe even yourself! – to eat healthier, then going against what our parents told us and playing with the food a little bit might not be a bad idea.
And if you want some more fun food ideas, be sure to check out Samantha’s Instagram, which is updated all the time. If you’re in need of a dish idea to impress or excite, it’s a great place to get inspired.
