Grab and Go Veggies Dippers!

The key to serving veggies at your KES Club is having them easy to grab and go for the kids.  If you are preparing them at home or at your KES Clubs, it’s best to have them cut up and ready to serve in your fridge.  Many KES Clubs have designated prep volunteers to pre-cut fruits and vegetables the day before serving them to ensure they are fresh and ready to go.  Serving fruit and vegetables on platters or in cups like the picture below allows for kids to easily grab them to enjoy.

Try veggies such as the following:

• Celery
• Peppers
• Carrots

All you need to do is place any kind of dip in the bottom of a cup and place pre-cut vegetables on top. You can try hummus, tzatziki, guacamole or ranch dressing for your dipping sauce.
