  • Lay one of the squash sheets horizontally on a cutting board. Arrange 3 radish slices along the top left side of the sheet so that half of the radishes extend above the sheet. Spread 1 teaspoon hummus over the squash and the parts of radishes that are on the squash.
  • Place two each celery, carrot, bell pepper, and scallion matchsticks, and one parsley sprig, in the middle of the squash sheet so they align at the bottom edge and extend above the top edge.
