With any holiday time, it’s always nice to have guests. I love the idea of making charcuterie boards for a lunch meal. They are super easy to prepare, and they look gorgeous when they are done. You will be the trendy chef when you present it to everyone. I made the one above as a meat board. You can totally change this up to cheese by replacing the various meats with various cheeses. Everything else should stay the same

Here’s some ideas I used. Anything really works. You can get several boards and put them across the middle of a table as well.

Breads:

Sourdough loafs

Baguette

Pitas cut into small triangles

Meats:

(Count 6 ounces per person)

Torpedo salami (beef and chicken)

Meat slices

Fruits:

Blueberries

Grapes -red and green

Cherry tomatoes

Dried apricots

Crackers:

Any artisan cracker looks good, like ones with cracked wheat or seeds

Condiments:

Serve these on the board in ramikens or off to the side

Gherkins

Black olives

Green olives

Dijon mustard

Dill dip

Mayonnaise

Hummus
