Turkey cruditie platter

 

TURKEY CRUDITE PLATTER

Perfect to munch before the feast without cutting your appetite.

Ingredients 

8 oz.                                                                 Whipped cream cheese 

About 4 tablespoons                                    Ranch salad dressing

About 4 tablespoons                                    Pumpkin purée

About 4 teaspoons                                        BBQ sauce

1 can                                                               Baby corn

Carrots, sring beans, tomatoes, fennel and 2 dots of black garlic.


Directions

In a bowl, stir together about 4 tablespoons of the cream cheese and 4 tablespoons of Ranch dressing (more or less to fill your small dip container for the turkey's head).  In a bigger bowl whip together about 8 tablespoons of cream cheese, about 4 tablespoons of pumpkin purée and about 4 teaspoons of your favorite BBQ sauce ( I used a local one made with maple syrup).  Again the measurements are approximate, depending on your container dip which has to be bigger than the other.

You can use different colorful veggies for the tail.  For the eyes I used black garlic, a cut up piece of carrot for the beak, a tiny piece of tomato for the snood and 2 pieces of fennel for the wings.


Happy Thanksgiving!
