1

Heat oven to 450°F. Spray 15x10x1-inch pan with cooking spray. In medium bowl, mix all dip ingredients until well blended. Cover; refrigerate until serving time.

In large bowl, mix all vegetable ingredients. Spread evenly in pan. Bake uncovered 15 to 20 minutes or until vegetables are crisp-tender. Serve warm with dip. Garnish with tarragon sprigs.

Save yourself some time by cutting the veggies and making the dip up to 2 days ahead. Refrigerate the dip tightly covered and the veggies in resealable food-storage plastic bags.
