Tips for Veggie Trays for Easter:

Get a large platter – Platter- Make sure your platter is large enough to hold all of the vegetables.
Keep Vegetables Fresh – Don’t make the tray too far in advance. You want the veggies to be fresh. It is fine to make it the night before you plan to use it.
Bite Size Vegetables – Cut vegetables into small bites. This makes it easy for you and your guest to grab from the vegetable tray.

Substitution and Variations:

Change the Dip – You can use any type of dip you prefer. We like to make homemade ranch or you can use a ranch seasoning packet and mix with sour cream for an easy dip.
Variety of Vegetables – Feel free to use what vegetables your prefer. You can add fruit and cheese to add additional flavor.
Crackers – Change the crackers to what you prefer. There are a variety of crackers with different flavors.

How to Store Leftovers:

Store the leftover veggies in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 1 week. Keep the leftover dip in a separate container, covered for up to 5 days.
