    Rainbow Veggie Kabobs

    These Rainbow Veggie Kabobs have a bright rainbow of colors on a stick and can be served at any occasion from last-minute get-togethers to planned parties. Sponsored by Marzetti® Veggie Dips.

    Rainbow Veggie Kabobs

    Whether or not you are the New Year’s resolution kind of person, most people make a commitment to eat healthier foods after all of the holiday feasting. There are so many ways to add more fruits and vegetables to your meals.

    I’ve been getting fruit in my morning smoothie, veggies in my soup for lunch and more veggies in a side dish for dinner. But what about when you get together with friends or family? Quite often there are snacks and desserts involved.

    So, why not bring a veggie tray to ofter a healthy choice to go along with the rest. These Rainbow Veggie Kabobs are an easy, fun way to grab fresh veggies. Serve them on a tray with a couple of Marzetti® Veggie Dips.

    Fresh Veggies

    Start with a rainbow of colors of fresh vegetables because it is important to eat a variety of colors of vegetables. Here are some options:

    1. Red: grape tomatoes, red peppers, radishes
    2. Orange: carrots, orange peppers, orange heirloom cherry tomatoes
    3. Yellow: yellow peppers, yellow zucchini, yellow heirloom cherry tomatoes
    4. Green: snap peas, celery, green peppers, cucumbers, broccoli, zucchini

    Wash the vegetables and cut them into strips, slices, wedges, and florets. When cutting the denser veggies like carrots, make sure you cut them into thin strips.

    Rainbow Vegetable Kabobs

    Thread the vegetables onto kabobs starting at one end of the rainbow. I did mine in this order:

    broccoli floret
    cucumber slice
    green pepper strip
    green pepper strip

    celery stick
    snap pea pod
    yellow pepper strip
    yellow pepper strip

    yellow pepper strip
    carrot stick
    carrot stick
    red pepper strip
    red pepper strip
    grape tomato

    Marzetti Dips for Rainbow Veggie Kabobs

    Stack the rainbow veggie kabobs on a platter and add a couple of containers of Marzetti® Veggie Dip. I love all of the varieties so it was hard to decide but this time I chose Marzetti® Dill and Marzetti® Spicy Avocado Ranch. Put a small serving spoon in each container of dip before serving.

    These Rainbow Veggie Kabobs can be served at any occasion from casual get-togethers to planned birthday parties. The bright rainbow of colors on a stick makes them feel as good as finger foods and helps everyone stick to their New Year’s resolutions.

      Dips are always a staple during our game days or outdoor cookouts. I especially like their caramel dip with sliced fruits.
