- 3-4 cheeses
- 2-3 meats
- 2-3 crackers/breads
- selection of fresh or dried fruit nuts, or other snacks from the pantry
- possibly a fun dip or spread
- possibly fresh berries fruit, veggies, olives, or pickles
- bonus: fresh herbs for garnish!
Gather all your food items first. Set them out on the counter so you can quickly size up what you have.
Start with one item. Pick something pretty and colorful, and put it down somewhere in the middle of a nice-sized board.
Pick something that goes with the first item (a veggie for a dip, crackers for a cheese). Put it down next to the first. Bonus points if it’s a pretty contrasting color!
Work your way out, following these principles, until your board is full. Serve!
