Kristen Bell just hopped on the unicorn food train and now we are drooling rainbows

We’re all for dancing to the beat of your own drum. And if you’re not one to hop on a bandwagon of any type, then more power to you! But this unicorn food craze is a hard trend to avoid. It’s just so pretty. And the most recent convert to the church of rainbows is Kristen Bell. Her unicorn-ified grilled cheese sandwich is making us drool rainbows and sparkles.

The coolest thing about Bell’s sandwich is the fact that she used natural food dyes to create the multicolored effect. She captioned her pic,

"Red=beet juice. Purple=boiled purple cabbage juice. Blue=Boiled purple cabbage juice+baking soda. Rainbow Grilled Cheese=DELICIOUS."

We’re wondering if Bell was inspired to make this creation by Rob on the ThreadBanger YouTube channel. We’re also wondering if Bell knew she could just get her colored cheeses from the Rainbow Cow Creamery. It seems like that option would have required a lot less work than having to dye her own cheeses.

But hey, to each their own, right?

(Note: We are well aware that this is a spoof and that rainbow cows don’t ~actually~ exist. But just imagine if they did! That would be rad!)

But if you want to create a rainbow unicorn grilled cheese sandwich à la Kristen Bell, all you’ll need to do is separately mix your choice of food coloring into small helpings of shredded cheese. Line your different colored cheeses up on a piece of bread, throw another piece on top and toss the sandwich into a buttered frying pan.

And then reap the magical rewards:

Like we said, this is a trend that’s hard to avoid falling in love with. The proof is in the pudding — or rather, the cheddar. Have fun on your unicorn culinary adventures and like Kristen Bell, be sure to share the beauty with others on the interweb.
