Ingredients

  • 3 peppers, red, green or yellow
  • 1 stalk celery
  • 1 pound baby carrots
  • 1 pound broccoli florets
  • 10 ounces cherry tomatoes

Instructions

  • Rinse and prep all veggies.
  • Hollow out the bell peppers by cutting the top off of each pepper. Use a spoon to scrape the inside of the peppers to remove the “white” lining as well as the seeds.
  • Fill the bell peppers with vegetable dips or sauces of your choice.
  • Place the dips on a serving tray or board and arrange the vegetables around them.
  • Garnish with fresh herbs and spices.

Notes

  •  
Recipe Tips.
  • Cut vegetables into similar sizes so they are easy to grab and dip.
  • Use a variety of colors to make the tray look more appealing and inviting.
  • Add ranch, hummus, or veggie dip inside the peppers for easy serving.
  • Keep veggies chilled until serving time to maintain freshness and crunch.
  • Prep the tray a few hours ahead, cover tightly, and refrigerate until ready to serve.
  • For this bell pepper vegetable board, we used a cookie sheet, but you can use any type of board or tray that you have at home. 
  • Add crackers, pita chips, cheese, or ham to the large platter to make it more of a Charcuterie Board or crudité platter. Assemble the platter the day before with meats and cheeses, but add the crackers right before serving.
  • For the Holidays try a Turkey Veggie Tray or a Christmas Veggie Tray.
Make this ahead of time. Assemble this vegetable tray the day before and keep it loosely covered in the refrigerator.
Store. Disassemble the veggies into groups of leftovers to put in the fridge, or cover the pan and refrigerate it as a whole.
