Spring is here! Everyone is excited to get outside and get together. Need something to bring to a back yard meet-up, porch gathering, or block party? Vegetable trays are a staple, but let’s face it, they can be a little boring. Here’s how to transform your vegetable tray from ho-hum to homerun.
PREP TIME: 30 MINS | TOTAL TIME: 30 MINS
Ingredients
· Seasonal vegetables, rinsed and cut
· Mix-ins such as olives and nuts
· Crackers
· Olives and nuts
· Creamy herb dip
· Hummus (we love Hummus Goodness)
Instructions
1. Grab a base: a platter, cutting board, or large sheet pan.
2. Arrange 3 small dip bowls on the base.
3. Fill the bowls with the dips. Pick one dip to drizzle Ruby Crunch over. Hummus pairs well and is a crowd pleaser because it is healthy, dairy free and gluten free. Make sure to have one bowl dedicated to Ruby Crunch because people will want more!
4. Arrange the crackers in an open section.
5. Arrange the vegetables in the remaining open sections.
6. Fill in the smaller sections with mix-ins such as olives and nuts.
7. Use sturdy greens to fill in the edges, if desired.
