Easy Meat And Cheese Board
There are so many things that can be added to a good cheese platter. You obviously want the meat and cheese. Then pickled veggies, fresh fruit/veg, nuts and dried fruit.
Next, make sure you have the right serving vessels. You can opt for the classic large board or several different platters. I prefer to use several serving platters so I can separate the dry breads & crackers, wet pickles & olives from the meats, cheeses and fruits.
When arranging your cheese board, go messy. Your platter will look stunning if you haphazardly place everything together.
Be sure to include spoons, spreading knives, napkins and small plates for serving.
Here are a few more charcuterie themed ideas to include: Charcuterie Wreath – Antipasto Skewers – Antipasto Salad
