This vibrant vegetable platter is bound to be a hit at your next dinner party. Start by preparing the veggies in two different ways to unlock all the different flavors and textures your produce has to offer. Half of the veggies remain raw to deliver a crisp, cool crunch, while the other half are roasted until they’re sweet and tender. Once your veggies are ready, zhuzh up some purchased hummus with fresh herbs and lemon juice to create the perfect Mediterranean dip. Everything comes together in just 25 minutes, so you’ll be in and out of the kitchen in a flash (even though it’ll look like you spent a while prepping this pretty platter!). Feel free to add some whole wheat crackers or pita triangles for an extra hearty snack plate.
