What the Bunny Really Wants to Bring for Easter

The following Easter basket is for the health-conscious, anti-sugar, Scientologist, vegetarian attachment parent. Just kidding. Although I do think that with my wealth of tabloid knowledge of baby Suri, Mr. & Mrs. Tom Cruise might go for such a basket over the sugar filled Peep laden alternative. And Dr. Sears would approve. ;)

1 8 oz. block Philadelphia Cream Cheese (go for the good stuff and skip the low-fat for this special occasion)

¼ c. chopped green onions

1 T. mayonnaise (not Miracle Whip)

1 T. soy sauce

½ clove of garlic pressed

Mix it all up in your blender. Serve with:

organic carrots with the green tops still on-just like a bunny would eat

celery sticks

cucumber sticks

broccoli and cauliflower florets

radishes

black olives

Put the dip in a little bowl barely big enough to hold it so it looks extra plentiful. Line your basket with plastic wrap. Create a bed of lettuce or cabbage leaves in the bottom. Arrange the veggies and dip artfully in the basket and refrigerate until ready to present.

You could always add a few hard-boiled Easter eggs as well.
