This is a way to turn your veggie Dip into a spectacular & Impressive presentation, when you add it to your party table Display. I wanted to add this earlier but didn't have the time. I made this one just to show you how it is done. I think I will donate this tray to my local bank for Lunch. You can use what ever veggies that you prefer not just the ones you see here. You can make your veggie dip or purchase one already made in the refrigerated section of the grocery store. There is no special way to arrange it either, just use your imagination as I did here & Be creative.

With the next cut, cut into a small portion of FIRST CUT, & do this all the way around radish as you work your way to the top. Then place in a large bowl of ice water, and allow cuts to open up like a flower. Repeat steps till you haVE MADE AS MANY AS YOU NEED FOR THE VEGETABLE PLATTER.

    GREEN ONION FLOWER- With a sharp knife, cut half of green onion tops away, chop that portion into small circles, and use on top of other foods, like this veggie boat, or other dishes. With the remaining portion of onions that is left, take a sharp paring knife & cut each blade into 3 or 4 strips, then repeat the same procedure for the white part if desired, then place in a large bowl of ice water, and allow to curl and open. Use as a garnish on veggie tray or other food dishes.
