Salad on a Stick

By

Pretty and fun to serve. If you're pressed for time, this would be just as nice with a creamy Italian, Ranch, feta, or Oil & Balsamic dressing.

Ingredients

  • Bamboo skewers
  • 1 green, yellow, or red bell pepper, seeded and cut into 1-inch dice
  • 1/3 seedless cucumber, diced
  • 1/2 pint grape tomatoes
  • 2 (1-inch-thick) pieces Genoa salami from the deli, cubed
  • 4 ribs celery, cut into 1-inch pieces
  • 1/2 cup heavy cream or whole milk
  • 1 (5.4-ounce) container garlic and herb flavored soft cheese (recommended: Boursin)
  • Salt and pepper

Preparation

Step 1

Combine the veggies and salami on a platter and serve with 1 bamboo skewer per person.

Blend together the cream or milk and cheese. Pour into a dipping dish and season with salt and pepper to taste.

Place the dip on the platter. Use your skewers to pierce salami and veggies, stacking up a mouthful at a time. Dip each bite in dressing as you eat.
