Help! crunchy vegetables for a buffet
sue
04/01/09 		Have a rsvp of 120 - party Saturday. Too much "soft" stuff already...pastas, lasagna, beans and dogs, Beef strogonoff/rice, chili, etc. (Im not turning down offers from those who want to bring a 1/2 tray of their best recipe.) But this is leaving me without a "crunchy item on the plate". We have color, and flavor, but we are lacking TEXTURE here. Help folks. Something besides raw veggies and dill dip please. Thank you, Sue

Or how about a crunchy cucumber salad- if you don't want to go dill, you could go southern sweet and sour. Or a crunchy slaw- see the several specialty recipes I have posted.
