VEGGIE CHRISTMAS TREE APPETIZER TRAY

Another take on the broccoli Christmas tree. This doesn't require a conical base but does require a tree-shaped pan. I used the Wilton Christmas Tree cake pan.

Steps:

  • Fill a Christmas tree shaped tray or pan with broccoli florets. The broccoli should be cut to the depth of the pan. Once the pan is full, prop the broccoli up to make it appear that the "tree" is lush and green.
  • Insert baby carrots into the broccoli so that just the tips show. These are the ornaments on the tree.
  • Insert cherry tomatoes for more "ornaments".
  • Place a small bowl (star-shaped?) at the top of the pan filled with Ranch dressing.

  • Prep & cut the veggies. The broccoli & cauliflower will be cut into bite size florets. Batonnet Cut the cucumber which is the fancy way of saying cut into stick shapes, more specifically so the tree shape looks cohesive a 2-inch long cucumber sticks (Or just slice it!). Slice the red bell pepper into strips. Lastly carefully use a knife to create a star from the slice of cheese, this is totally optional but I think it takes it to the next level.
  • Once eveything is cut assemble the tree. You will start with all of the green vegetables to create the green part of the tree. Start with the bottom, I choose broccoli for the top & bottom because it stayed in place the best for me but it truly doesn't matter. Layer each green vegetable into a tree shape, repeat the vegetables if necessary.
  • Once you are happy with your green tree shape add the rest of the vegetables. At the base add baby carrots into a stump. Around the stump place the cauliflower for snow. Carefully add the red bell pepper strips onto the tree as decorations. Lastly place the cheese star on top. Feel free to add other vegetables are tree decorations as well. Best served with a dip like my Healthy Yogurt Ranch or Easy Hummus.
