Ingredients

  • 2-3 cheeses, mix of soft and hard
  • 12 pieces cured meat (salami, prosciutto, coppa)
  • 3/4 cup fresh fruit (grapes, strawberries, blueberries)
  • 1/4 cup dried fruit (dried apricots)

Instructions

  • Arrange small bowls or ramekins to hold your spreads, olives, and/or pickled items. Make sure to space them out on the board.

  • Separate meats into individual slices and arrange. Get creative by folding them into roses, ribbons, or bouquets.
  • Place fruit in remaining open spaces. Then add nuts to fill any small gaps.
  • Add your spreads, olives, and pickled items to the small bowls.
  • Garnish with fresh herbs.
  • Set up a variety of cracker options on the side.
