Crudites With Vomit Vinaigrette
Ingredients:
Cherry tomatoes
Carrots - peeled
Zucchini
Celery stalks
Radishes
Mushroom caps
2 c Cottage cheese
1 Onion soup mix
1/4 c Milk
Yellow food coloring
Directions:
Rinse the vegetables in warm water, except the mushroom caps. Wipe those gently with a damp paper towel. Then slice the carrots, zucchini and celery into thin sticks. The cherry tomatoes can be served whole, but you may want to remove any green stems. The radishes and mushrooms can be halved or served whole. If you are not serving right away, put the vegetables in a plastic bag and store them in the refrigerator to keep them fresh and crispy. In a small bowl, mix the cottage cheese, onion soup mix and milk. Stir in some food coloring until you get the desired yellowish color. Do not overmix! Lumpy is more realistic! Arrange your vegetables on a platter surrounding the Vomit Vinaigrette. Vomit Vinaigrette tastes great in sandwiches, too! Try splattering some into pita pockets!
