What are you doing for New Year’s Eve? We’re having a house party, because even when I was younger, I could never see paying twice as much as I normally would for dinner or drinks just to be around a lot of people who go out drinking twice a year.
So if you’re having a house party or even a few people over to pre-game before you go out, you’re probably having a veggie platter. We all feel much better eating dip off a piece of broccoli or a carrot than a chip, don’t we? (By the way, if you need a good dip recipe that goes well with veggies or chips, check out the bacon-ranch-cheese dip at https://allybearsden.blog/office-parties-to-drink-or-not-to-drink-and-a-dip-recipe/). But just because we all have them doesn’t mean you can’t make your NYE veggie platter cute!
I used pre-cut broccoli and cauliflower, cut some baby-cut carrots in half, and cut one yellow pepper into strips. Then it’s just a matter of arranging your veggies to look like a champagne bottle. I’m making a backup platter because (a) I want more carrots and cauliflower, and (b) people may not want to pick this apart!
Wishing you all a fun New Year’s Eve! Remember, if you drink, don’t drive!
