Garden Flower Salad Platter πΌπ₯
A handful of everyday vegetables can turn into the prettiest little garden on a plate!
I love how the thin cucumber slices form a delicate green border, while bright shredded carrots create a sunny orange ring. In the center, crisp lettuce and overlapping cucumber petals surround juicy cherry tomatoes, making a lovely edible flower.
And those little blossoms made from hard-boiled egg slices? Such a sweet finishing touch! This is a refreshing, colorful way to serve vegetables for a family lunch, spring brunch, or special gathering.
Fresh Ingredients: β’ 2 fresh cucumbers β’ 2β3 carrots, shredded β’ 4 hard-boiled eggs β’ 7 cherry tomatoes β’ Fresh green leaf lettuce β’ Fresh parsley β’ Black pepper
πΏ Presentation Tip
Arrange thin cucumber rounds around the edge of a large circular platter, overlapping them slightly.
Create a thick ring of shredded carrots just inside the cucumber border. Place fresh lettuce in the center, then arrange more cucumber slices like flower petals with cherry tomatoes in the middle.
For the little white flowers, overlap slices of hard-boiled eggs in a circular pattern, keeping the yellow yolks visible. Add parsley leaves underneath and a light sprinkle of black pepper.
Chill until ready to serve for a crisp, fresh appetizer that brings a little garden charm to the table. πΈ
