Christmas Tree Appetizer

I had to bring an appetizer to a party this weekend so the first place I searched for a recipe was on Pinterest. I wanted the appetizer to be healthy and have a Christmas theme.  On Pinterest I found two wreaths, one was made out of brocolli and cherry tomatoes and another made out of Rosemary, olives and cheese. I also found a Christmas Tree made out of Thyme, brocolli, tomatoes and cheese. I decided to make a tree out of most of those ingredients and more. 

I put Christmas wrapping paper on a cookie sheet and covered that with parchment paper.  Then I  formed a tree with red peppers, cheese, broccoli, celery and cucumbers stuffed with roasted red pepper hummus. I outlined the tree with celery and topped it with a red pepper star. It was fun to make and was a festive crowd pleaser!
