You can use fresh or frozen broccoli, but fresh is always best.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">When choosing broccoli, look for firm and compact florets with a deep green color.

They&#8217;re also a great source of antioxidants and minerals.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">When choosing carrots, look for firm and straight carrots with a deep orange color.

Pat them dry with a paper towel to remove excess moisture.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Step 2: Prepare the Dips<\/strong> , Open the hummus and ranch dressing, and give them a good stir. If you&#8217;re using fresh parsley and dill, chop them up and add them to the dips for extra flavor.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Step 3: Assemble the Cups<\/strong> , Fill each cup with a variety of green veggies, leaving about 1-2 inches at the top. Spoon a small amount of hummus or ranch dressing into each cup, depending on your preference.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Step 4: Serve and Enjoy<\/strong> , Serve the green veggie cups immediately, garnished with extra parsley and dill if desired.
