One of the best and most popular appetizer ideas for large parties are vegetable platters and they are one of the easiest finger appetizers to serve!!
Vegetable platters satisfy a diverse range of tastes and just a few different vegetables go a long way in feeding a large crowd. To top it off, with a bit of planning you will have great make ahead appetizers that keep you well organized come party day.
On the day prior to your party, choose a variety of vegetables (carrots, broccoli, red and green peppers, radishes, cauliflower), wash & cut into bite size pieces. Cover with wet paper towel and refrigerate.
Prepare your dip either from a package (there are some absolutely wonderful packaged dips out there that you need only to add sour cream or mayonnaise) or try our Easy Herbed Vegetable Dip recipe below:
