CHARCUTERIE WREATH

This festive beautiful appetizer is such a crowd-pleaser for the holidays. This salty mix of olives, tomatoes, and mozzarella goes perfectly with crackers or fresh bread. Perfect for a crowd this holiday season. 

This appetizer wreath is so simple to put together and a fun way to serve olives, mozzarella and veggies. Similar to this CHARCUTERIE WREATH that I posted last year, but no need to skewer all of the ingredients. All that skewer-ing does get a bit tedious.

2. Cut the rosemary into pieces and arrange it on top of the lettuce wreath by sticking the rosemary toward the outside so as to create the wreath.
3. Arrange the olives, cherry tomatoes, and mozzarella cheese over the rosemary and spring mix. Overlap the ingredients to give the wreath depth and pops of contrasting color throughout.

Notes

It is best to use a rimmed circular platter if you have one. This will keep the olives from rolling off.
