Ah, yes! 🎉 Confetti Salad is that fun, colorful, slightly sweet side dish that looks festive on the table — popular in potlucks and holiday meals. It’s creamy, crunchy, and full of “confetti” colors from vegetables and sometimes fruits.

Here’s a classic version:

🥗 Confetti Salad

Ingredients:

• 1 (8 oz) package cream cheese, softened
• 1 cup sour cream or Greek yogurt
• 1–2 tsp sugar (optional, for a slight sweet touch)
• 1 bell pepper, finely diced (red, yellow, or green for color)
• 1 small carrot, shredded or finely diced
• ½ cup celery, finely diced
• 2–3 green onions, sliced thin
• ½ cup shredded cheddar cheese (optional)
• Salt and pepper to taste

Instructions:

1. Mix the base:
   In a large bowl, combine cream cheese, sour cream (or yogurt), and sugar. Beat until smooth.
2. Add the “confetti”:
   Fold in bell peppers, carrots, celery, green onions, and shredded cheese.
3. Season:
   Add salt and pepper to taste. Mix gently until combined.
4. Chill:
   Refrigerate at least 30 minutes before serving so flavors meld.

Optional Variations:

• Add pomegranate seeds or raisins for a sweet twist.
• Use cottage cheese instead of sour cream for a lighter version.
• Top with crispy bacon bits for extra crunch.

This salad works as a side for sandwiches, BBQs, or holiday meals — and it’s a guaranteed crowd-pleaser because it’s colorful and creamy.
