  • Author: Nancy
  • Prep Time: 20
  • Total Time: 20 minutes

Ingredients

  • Fresh Vegetables: Bell peppers, cherry tomatoes, broccoli, cucumber, and carrots (2 cups total).
  • Wooden Skewers: 6-8 inches long, soaked if grilling.
  • Dipping Sauce: 1 cup Greek yogurt, 1 tsp lemon juice, garlic powder, salt, and pepper.
  • Garnishes: 1-2 tbsp parsley or sesame seeds for decoration.

Instructions

  1. Prepare Vegetables: Wash, dry, and chop veggies into uniform, bite-sized pieces.
  2. Assemble Skewers: Thread vegetables onto skewers, alternating colors for a festive look. Use 5-7 pieces per skewer.
  3. Arrange & Garnish: Display skewers creatively on a platter or “plant” them in small decorative pots. Sprinkle with parsley or sesame seeds.
  4. Serve with Dip: Pair with yogurt-based dipping sauce or hummus in ramekins. Add garnishes like chopped herbs for extra flair.

Notes

  • For grilling, soak wooden skewers for 30 minutes to prevent burning.
  • Add more vegetables based on preference; zucchini and radishes are great options.
  • Make ahead and refrigerate, covered, for up to 6 hours.
