Fresh vegetable Bouquets are really easy to make if you have a little bit of patience and creativity. Fresh vegetables and dips are always a hit at parties, and it is always a healthy choice.

For the base of the fresh vegetable bouquet, you can use a fabric lined food basket or any other food safe container. There are two things you can use for the cushion base to poke skewers in. Either you can use a head of cabbage that has been cut in half, and placed cut side down, or you can use a 3 large baked potatoes, freshly cooked and cooled. Both work great as cushions to poke sticks in.

Prepare your vegetable dips either from scratch, or package mixes, or store bought from the fresh deli department of your grocery store. You can also use creamy bottled dressings. Get your dip good and cold in the refrigerator.

Next, Take an assortment of vegetables you will use to create your fresh vegetable bouquet masterpiece. Black and green olives make a nice touch for the center of flowers. Celery stalks and parsley provide nice greenery as well. Rolled organic greens secured with a toothpick make great leaves. Scallions or green onion make beautiful stalks of greenery too.
