I have made this many times and it is impressive. I make it in a heart shape for wedding showers/valentines day and a #2 for one of my kids birthdays. Would also be cute as a shamrock or initials.

This was a hit with a ladies group I served it to. I didn't need nearly the amount of chopped up veggies that were called for.

I took this to my neighborhood Christmas party. I had several asking for this recipe! It looked like a complicated appetizer, but it's deceptively easy to make.

I did make and take this to our neighborhood Christmas party last evening. My husband said it was very impressive and suggested I take a picture of it. I did use the Crescent Rounds - made it really easy. Also, I used two small cookie/fondant cutters and made stars. I put three larger ones by the celery "bow" and then the small ones around the rest of the wreath. They all really enjoyed it.

I haven't made this yet, but plan on doing it for a neighborhood Christmas party this weekend. From the list of ingredients, I know it will be tasty! I plan to use Crescent Rounds instead of crescent rolls - won't have to cut them in to slices that way.

My family is not fond of broccoli. Is there anything else to substitute?

Hi aka Alice,

 

 

I'm going to a art auction with my womans group and need to bring an appetizer this appetizer wreath sounds great. I don't think a bunch of ladies with garlic breath is appealing so I was concidering your idea that you added for the Pillsbury dough wreath. In the recipe you said the above. that you spread ranch dressing seasoning, pkg ranch dressing. Is this 2 different items? I was thinking that you meant to spread Ranch " salad dressing on it. then added the vegetables to color it up. or is there a "dressing pkg" I need to look for. Thanks,  Karen in Ga
