  • 1 1/3 cup garden vegetable cream cheese spread, softened
  • 20 pieces of (3 1/2 inches each) celery
  • 3 slices (1 oz each) deli sliced cooked ham

  4. Cut ham slices lengthwise into 16 pieces.
  5. Cut pieces crosswise into 1-inch pieces.
  6. Place about 12 ham pieces over cream cheese to look like "bandages;" use tip of a knife to tuck in ends of ham along the celery edge.
  7. Cut cranberries into 40 pieces.
  8. Place pieces between "bandages" for mummies’ eyes.
