Get your kids excited about their vegetables with this charming Spring platter. Alternatively, you can just make a few to add to lunch boxes.

A platter of sliced carrots and cucumbers arranged to look like fish with edible eyes and chive tails, next to a bowl of creamy dip—these playful bites make healthy food dishes fun and inviting on a white round plate.
