Irish Fondue

No need to look for a rainbow to find a pot of gold. This fun fondue might even get the kids to eat more veggies.

Vegetables and fruits for dipping. Our favorites: Cauliflower, broccoli, peeled baby carrots, asparagus tips, apple wedges, pear wedges
1 pound Irish cheddar cheese, grated
2½ Tbsp. all-purpose flour
¾ cup sparkling apple cider
½ cup frozen apple juice concentrate, thawed
1 Tbsp. brown mustard

Steam all vegetables until crisp-tender, about 15 minutes. Arrange vegetables and fruit around edge of large platter.
Toss cheese with flour in large bowl.
Bring apple cider, juice concentrate and mustard to simmer in large saucepan over medium heat.
Gradually add cheese mixture, stirring constantly, until cheese is melted and smooth, thinning with more cider, if desired.
Season to taste with salt and pepper.
Transfer fondue to bowl. Place in center of platter with vegetables and fruit.
