Categories     Condiment/Spread     Dairy     Vegetable     No-Cook     Kid-Friendly     Quick & Easy     Gourmet     Small Plates

Yield Serves 12 children

Number Of Ingredients 12

3/4 cup sour cream
1/2 cup mayonnaise
1/3 cup chopped fresh flat-leaf parsley
1/4 cup chopped fresh chives
1/4 teaspoon minced garlic
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon black pepper
4 carrots, cut into sticks
6 celery ribs, cut into sticks
1 seedless cucumber (usually plastic-wrapped), cut into sticks
1 small jicama, peeled, halved lengthwise, and cut into sticks
1 1/2 cups grape or cherry tomatoes (9 oz)

Steps:

  • Stir together sour cream, mayonnaise, parsley, chives, garlic, salt, and pepper in a bowl until combined well. Chill dip, covered, until slightly thickened, at least 1 hour (for flavors to develop).
  • Serve dip with vegetables.

Tips:

  • Choose fresh vegetables: The fresher the vegetables, the better the veggie forest will taste. Look for vegetables that are brightly colored and free of blemishes.
  • Cut the vegetables into bite-sized pieces: This will make them easier to eat and will help them to cook evenly.
  • Use a variety of vegetables: The more variety of vegetables you use, the more flavorful and interesting your veggie forest will be. Some good options include broccoli, carrots, celery, cauliflower, snap peas, and bell peppers.
  • Roast the vegetables: Roasting the vegetables brings out their natural sweetness and flavor. Toss the vegetables with olive oil, salt, and pepper before roasting them at 425 degrees Fahrenheit for 20-25 minutes, or until they are tender.
  • Make the Parmesan ranch dip: The Parmesan ranch dip is a delicious and easy-to-make complement to the veggie forest. Simply combine sour cream, mayonnaise, Parmesan cheese, ranch dressing mix, and garlic powder in a bowl and mix until well combined.
  • Assemble the veggie forest: To assemble the veggie forest, place the roasted vegetables in a large bowl and pour the Parmesan ranch dip over them. Toss to coat the vegetables evenly. Then, arrange the vegetables on a serving platter and sprinkle with additional Parmesan cheese.

Conclusion:

The veggie forest with Parmesan ranch dip is a delicious and healthy appetizer or snack. It is perfect for parties or potlucks, and it is also a great way to get your kids to eat their vegetables. The roasted vegetables are packed with flavor, and the Parmesan ranch dip is a creamy and tangy complement. This recipe is sure to be a hit with everyone who tries it.
