Step 1

On a large rectangular platter, begin arranging the broccoli florets in a triangular Christmas tree shape. Start with a wide base and gradually narrow as you move upward.

Step 2

Scatter cherry tomatoes throughout the broccoli to resemble ornaments on the tree.

Step 3

Use the yellow bell pepper strips to create a garland effect, draping them diagonally across the broccoli tree.

Step 4

Place carrot rounds sporadically on the tree to add more color, resembling additional ornaments.

Step 5

Fill in any gaps with snap peas and cauliflower florets to give the tree a fuller appearance.

Step 6

Arrange cucumber slices around the base of the tree to create a tree skirt effect.

Step 7

Place a slice of star fruit at the top of the tree as the star topper.

Step 8

Serve with ranch dressing or your preferred dip in a small bowl next to the tree.
