# Steps to Follow:

01 - Wash all fresh vegetables and fruits thoroughly. Trim sugar snap peas and slice cucumbers, kiwis, and green apples into uniform pieces. Cut bell peppers into strips and separate broccoli into florets. Cut celery into sticks.
02 - In a small bowl, combine 1 cup Greek yogurt with 1 tablespoon chopped fresh dill, 1 tablespoon chopped fresh chives, 1 teaspoon lemon juice, and salt and pepper to taste. Mix until well combined.
03 - Transfer guacamole, spinach and artichoke dip, and herbed Greek yogurt dip into small serving bowls. Position bowls in the center or at the corners of a large serving board or platter.
04 - Organize fresh vegetables and fruits around the dips, grouping by color and type for visual appeal. Create distinct sections for sugar snap peas, cucumber, bell pepper, broccoli, celery, green grapes, kiwi, and apple slices.
05 - Distribute green tortilla chips, wasabi peas, mozzarella balls, green olives, and guacamole-flavored popcorn throughout the board in attractive piles among the fresh produce.
06 - Fill any remaining empty spaces with green M&Ms, pistachios, and matcha chocolate bark. Ensure the board has balanced color distribution and visual appeal throughout.
07 - Serve the board immediately at room temperature with serving tongs and spoons for dips. If preparing ahead, cover tightly and refrigerate until ready to serve, up to 4 hours in advance.

# Additional Tips::

01 -
  • Zero cooking required means you can throw this together while answering last-minute party texts.
  • Everyone finds something they love, from the vegetable lovers to the candy sneakers in your friend group.
  • It looks impossibly impressive despite being ridiculously simple to assemble.
02 -
  • Pat your vegetables dry before arranging them, or moisture will eventually make everything look sad and wilted by the end of the party.
  • Keep the dips cold by occasionally swapping out the bowls with fresh ones from the fridge, especially if your gathering is longer than an hour.
03 -
  • Slice everything about an hour before serving to find the sweet spot between looking fresh and being truly ready to eat.
  • Use a large board or platter so everything has breathing room and doesn't look cramped, even if it feels empty while you're arranging.
