​Carrots are my oldest son’s favorite veggie! He loves how they crunch when he takes a bite. If your kiddos are still learning to like them, try making them into a fun flower shape! If you have a flower shaped mini cookie cutter, you could use that too. But all it takes is a few simple cuts and you will have a lovely bouquet.

Carrot Bouquet

Ingredients

• Rainbow Carrots
• Cucumber
• Dip - we love hummus for carrots!

Instructions

1. Peel a large carrot ( if using baby carrots, no need to peel ). Cut out notches in the sides of carrots to make different designs or just leave them as circles. Slice the carrots into rounds and reveal your flower design.
2. Arrange them in a bouquet or just eat the yummy carrot flowers! Serve with a dip such as hummus or ranch.
