How To Make inside out veggie dip

  • Step 1
    Peel strips from cucumbers to create decorative edges if desired; cut into 1/2" slices. Finely chop two slices; set aside. With a small spoon, scoop some of the seeds from the remaining slices.
  • Step 2
    Cut a thin slice from the bottoms of tomatoes to allow them to rest flat. Cut a thin slice from tops of tomatoes; scoop out pulp, leaving a 1/4" shell. Invert onto paper towels to drain.
  • Step 3
    In a large bowl, combine the cream cheese, red pepper, celery, onion, carrot, seasonings & chopped cucumber.
  • Step 4
    Fill tomatoes & cucumber slices with cream cheese mixture, about 1 teaspoon in each. Refrigerate for at least 1 hour.
