Easter Grazing Board

START WITH FRESH ORGANIC VEGETABLES:

A selection of fresh and seasonal vegetables gives you a nice balance of textures, flavor, and a burst of color - pick your favorites!

• Fresh Sugar Snap Peas
• English Cucumber Slices
• Fresh Green Beans (steamed & blanched)
• Green Pepper Slices
• Fresh Asparagus (steamed & blanched)
• Red Cabbage
• Tri-Colored Carrots or Baby Carrots
• Red Radishes or Watermelon Radishes (if you can find them!)
• Tri-Colored Grape Tomatoes
• Celery Sticks
• Broccoli Florets
• Broccolini
• Cauliflower Florets
• Baby Sweet Peppers

ADD CREAMY VEGETABLE DIPS & SPREADS

While healthy vegetables are great to munch on any time, adding a bowl of Fresh Spinach Dip, Fresh Dill Dip, or creamy Roasted Pine Nut Hummus on your vegetable platter makes for lots of fun dipping!  Onion & Chive or Garden Vegetable Cream Cheese is another popular choice.  

You can also add sliced baguette bread, seasonal crackers, or Stonefire Naan Dippers - which are perfect for Easter with their egg shapes!

I prep all of my vegies and bag them ahead of time for easy serving and re-filling during party time.  Spring is such a fun time for a healthy vegetable platter!
