ingredients

cheeses
  • One small round of brie cut into wedges so it can easily be fanned out
  • 8 oz parmigiano reggiano
  • Blue cheese
  • 8 oz sliced smoked gouda
meats
  • Genoa salami
  • Prosciutto
  • Hard salami
  • Sopressata
fruit
  • Melon Prosciutto Salad
  • 1 lb green and/or red grapes
  • 1 lb fresh cherries
  • 6 oz fresh strawberries
  • 1/2 pint raspberries
  • 1/2 pint blueberries
  • 1/2 pint blackberries
  • 4 oz cherry tomatoes
bread
  • Crackers - I like to have at least three kinds
  • Sliced toasted baguette you could also use sourdough
extras
  • Jam or Compote I used a blueberry thyme compote!
  • Honey
  • Fresh herbs - basil rosemary, thyme to fill in gaps

instructions

  • Place the larger items that go in bowls on your board first. After placing the bowls, fill them with your dips. For me, this includes the honey and jam/compote.
  • I like to lay out my items in groups to spread them out evenly. I start with the meats, then the cheeses, followed by the crackers, and finally fresh produce.
  • Finally, use fresh herbs and any leftover berries to fill in any gaps between the items. Add spoons for jams/compotes and honey (I love to have a honey stick specifically).
