# Expert Advice:

01 -
  • It's a show-stopper that looks like you spent hours in the kitchen, but takes just 20 minutes—your secret's safe with me
  • Every ingredient is real food you'd actually eat, so even as people admire the bunny, they're genuinely enjoying themselves
  • It works for vegetarians, gluten-free diets, and dairy-free eaters with simple swaps, making it the inclusive centerpiece every gathering needs
02 -
  • Drain your cottage cheese thoroughly—I learned this the hard way when my beautiful white face sections started pooling with liquid within an hour of assembly
  • Don't cut your vegetables too far ahead; they'll weep and lose their vibrant color. Prep everything within two hours of serving
  • The olives might roll slightly as you arrange them. Nestle them into small grooves or use a tiny dab of hummus as an anchor if needed—nobody will know your secret trick
03 -
  • Prep all your ingredients in separate small bowls before you begin assembly—it makes the whole process flow smoothly and keeps your workspace from getting chaotic
  • Use a toothpick to nudge olives into place if needed, or to create little decorative touches like spots or a tail
