Great for parties! Kids loved it. I put extra cut up veggies around the outside edge of my platter because no one wanted to eat him.

It was really cute! No one wanted to eat it, though. I bought pre-cut vegetables to make it easier.

It was adorable but a lot of work. It took two people- one to cut up everything and one witha vision to organize it on a plate. Our guests loved it, however.

I added two black olives for eyes and a small piece of red pepper for a smile. It completed the "look". Very cute display!

Great, healthy recipe for kid's parties. I made it into a scarecrow and used olives & red peppers to make a face in the dip. It does not feed very many so for a larger group I set up some extra bowls of veggies I had leftover. The kids loved it.
