Direcciones
- Blanch the green beans, asparagus, broccoli.
- Cool quickly under cold water and dry.
- Separate the broccoli into bite sized pieces.
- Slice celery, peppers, carrots, jimica, and any other vegetables into easy to handle bite sized pieces.
- Peel back some of the outer leaves of the cabbage for decoration then hollow out the cabbage - a melon baller works well.
- Line the platter with lettuce allowing it to overlap the ends of the platter.
- Place the cabbage in the center or I like off-center and an oval platter.
- Arrange, pile the veggies in groups around the cabbage; getting them to sort of stand up when you can...just so it looks a little more interesting then a flat wagon wheel.
- Fill the cabbage with your favorite dip.
- Tuck herb bunches on one or both diagonal sides.
- Sprinkle chopped parsley lightly over the top if you like.
