crudite
Uncooked veggie platter
Crudités are raw vegetables served as an appetizer, typically cut into sticks or bite-sized pieces and accompanied by a dip.
The word is French, and the plural form predominates in English: a platter of crudités with ranch dressing.
The singular crudité appears occasionally but sounds overly precise for what's essentially a fancy vegetable tray.
