Cutest Easter Bunny Veggie Tray

We’ve shared many vegetable trays over the years. I love a good platter of vegetables. You might recall all of for various seasons and themes – Christmas and Easter and Halloween. Well, this Easter Bunny veggie tray is now one of my all-time favourites. He’s right up there with Santa Claus.cute easter bunny veggie tray with title

How cute is this Easter bunny shaped veggie platter? What I love about a fun vegetable platter is how versatile they are. Yes, they make a great addition to a big family buffet, but they are also a super fun weeknight dinner option. A creative platter of veggies is a great way to get the kids to eat all their veggies…right? 

How to Make an Easter Bunny Veggie Tray

11″ x 14″ white baking sheet
small white bowl
paring knife
cauliflower
broccoli
mini carrots
cherry tomatoes
small cucumbers
small red pepper
2 blueberries
1 raspberry
1 stalk of celery
bowl of our veggie dip (or your favourite vegetable dip)

I picked up this white baking sheet for the purpose of making vegetable trays. The sides help to keep everything in order. You could totally build your bunny vegetable platter right on a cutting board or any large platter.

all the vegetables for the easter vegetable platterFirst up is all the prep work. Break down the cauliflower into smaller and medium sized florets and do the same with the broccoli. Wash all of the vegetables and set them aside to dry. once everything is washed and dried it’s time to start building.

Now it’s time to sculpt the Easter Bunny. Begin by placing clusters of cauliflower around the bowl – filling in the bunny’s head. Then start building the ears. For the ear, leave a channel in the middle for the inner, cherry tomato, section of the ear. Add the cherry tomatoes. 

There will be some trial and error. My best tip is to start with larger florets and then fill them in with smaller florets. Don’t be afraid to trim the florets as you go along.

The eyes are two blueberries and the mouth is made from a small red pepper. Take advantage of the natural curve at the top of the red pepper. Simply cut a thin slice and trim it down to the size that best fits your bowl. The whiskers are made from celery. Slice the celery stalk very thinly and trim them to the length that works for your bunny. You will need 6 whiskers. Make them nice and long so they have lots of personality.

Again, use the vegetables that you have on hand. Maybe you’d like to add asparagus, snap peas or more celery and peppers. Have fun.
