Ingredients
16
baby carrots
1
red bell pepper
1
yellow bell pepper
1
celery stalk
36
pea pods
Ranch veggie dip
or your favorite veggie dip
Instructions
Rinse all veggies thoroughly and pat them dry.
Slice the bell peppers into long strips to create flower petals.
Fill three small bowls with ranch or your favorite veggie dip and place them on the platter where you'd like each flower to be.
Arrange baby carrots in a circle to create around one bowl to form the first flower.
Repeat the process with the yellow bell pepper and red bell pepper strips to form the other flowers.
Cut celery into thin strips and position them underneath the flowers to resemble stems.
Finish by layering pea pods along the bottom of the platter to create the look of spring grass.
Notes
Store any leftover vegetables in a resealable bag and dips in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 5 days.
