Party Veggies

Last Saturday I co-hosted a baby shower for my little sister.  In preparing the menu, I thought it would be nice to include some healthy but tasty veggies.  I found these vibrant little gems while searching the Sam’s Club website and, based on the reviews, I didn’t see any reason not to try them.

They’re Wilson’s Mini Sweet Peppers and I think they’re absolutely delicious!  I used them on a veggie tray and julienned a few in order to create some veggie shots.

I also used these seedless cucumbers which were perfect.  They had a really nice refreshing bite to them.

The veggie tray/shots also included carrots, broccoli, celery, sugar snap peas and cherry tomatoes.

These are Tomato-Basil Caprese Skewers.  To make them, I threaded cherry tomatoes, cubes of fresh mozzarella cheese, and fresh basil pieces onto bamboo skewers.  After arranging them on the platter, I poured Kraft Light House Italian Dressing over the skewers.

Party Veggies are nice for baby showers, birthday parties and many other social occasions.  Happy Celebrating!!

    Wow, I love how beautifully you arranged the veggies! I could certainly go for some of those peppers right now. And maybe a cherry tomato or 2 for the road 🙂

    Congrats to your sister too!
