You need

To buy

  • 1 pound carrots
  • 1 bunch celery

From your shelf

  • 1 container multigrain bagel chips & cream cheese dip, garden vegetable (Philadelphia)

Staples

  • pinch salt
  • pinch pepper

  1. Scrub and cut 1 pound of carrots into sticks and chop the celery from 1 bunch into 3-inch pieces, then arrange them on a board or plate.
  2. Spoon the garden vegetable dip from the container into a small bowl, stir in a pinch of salt and pepper, and set it in the center of your vegetable board.
  3. Serve the bagel chips in a bowl alongside and eat by dipping vegetables and chips into the warmed dip until you are full.
