My daughter Lily is a vegetarian so I wanted to make sure that she has a wide variety of snacks to enjoy at our family celebrations. To make this vegetable platter even more special is that is served on my Grandmothers silver tray. Lucky to have so many of my family treasures to enjoy and share with my girls and Steve.
