Salad on a Stick

Another great Rachael Ray recipe. My kids love this one; they'll eat their veggies this way! The recipe says to let each person assemble their own "salad", but I think it makes a better presentation if it's already done for them. Either way, it's a fun way to eat veggies!

• Ready In: 10 mins
• Serves: 4

Ingredients

•  bamboo skewer
• 1  green bell pepper, seeded and cut into 1-inch dice
• 1⁄3 seedless cucumber, diced
• 1⁄2 pint grape tomatoes
• 2  pieces  genoa salami, from the deli 1-inch thick and cubed
• 4  celery ribs, cut into 1-inch pieces
• 1⁄2 cup  whole milk (or heavy cream)
• 1 (5 1/2ounce) container  garlic & herb spreadable cheese (recommended ( Boursin)
•  salt and pepper

Directions

1. Combine the veggies and salami on a platter and serve with 1 bamboo skewer per person.
2. Blend together the cream or milk and cheese. Pour into a dipping dish and season with salt and pepper to taste.
3. 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, but don't double dip, please!
