You know how sometimes baby carrots will have a little crack on their underside? I assume this is due to the process of turning carrots into . . . baby carrots. No big deal, right? Well, a few weeks ago at a party, I saw a guy pick up a baby carrot, notice the crack, and then put it back on the veggie tray. Dude, no. Once you’ve touched the carrot, you’ve committed to that carrot. There’s no put-backsies.

This little incident got me thinking of ways to turn the communal veggie tray into a more personal-sized serving. I’ve done veggies and dip in little plastic cups before, which works well, but it’s kind of a pain to rinse out all the cups in order to recycle them (we’re big recyclers around here). I’m a big fan of wonton cups, because they’re edible, and take just 8 minutes to bake to a crisp golden brown.

For these “personal veggie trays,” I used La Terra Fina Chunky Spinach Artichoke & Parmesan Dip & Spread. This creamy dip has tons of sharp cheese flavor and big chunks of artichoke. Even better, it’s gluten free, and contains no artificial colors, flavors or preservatives.

I used a variety of celery, mini sweet peppers and baby carrots (with and without the cracks), but feel free to build these using whatever veggies you like best! Enjoy, and no put-backsies, OK?

Veggie & Dip Wonton Cups

Yield: 12 pieces
Prep Time: 15 minutes
Cook Time: 8 minutes

Ingredients

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Spray standard muffin pan with cooking spray. Press 1 wonton wrapper into each muffin cup, taking care to press against bottom and sides of cup. Lightly spray wrappers with additional cooking spray.
  2. Bake 8 minutes or until golden brown and crisp. Remove wonton cups from muffin pan and transfer to a cooling rack to cool completely before filling. Wonton cups can be made up to 4 hours in advance: let cool completely, then cover with a clean kitchen towel and keep at room temperature.
  3. To serve, divide dip between wonton cups (about 1-1/2 tablespoons dip in each cup). Fill cups with carrots, celery and peppers.
