Christmas Charcuterie Board
Building a beautiful charcuterie board is one of my favorite ways to welcome guests during the holidays. With a mix of festive colors, sweet and savory bites, and simple serving ideas, this board is as fun to assemble as it is to share.
Servings: 8
Ingredients
- 1 celery stalk
- 2 cups green grapes
- 1 cup pepperjack cheese cubes
- 1 cup sliced cucumbers
- 1 cup dill havarti cheese cubes
- 12-16 slices salami
- 1 cup colby jack cheese cubes
- 2 medium kiwi (skinned and sliced)
- 1 yellow bell pepper (sliced)
- 1/2 cup pomegranate arils
- 6 rosemary sprigs
Instructions
- Begin layering the board from the bottom up. Start with celery stalks cut into 2 inch pieces to create a tree trunk.
- Layer the grapes on top of the celery as the base. Continue to build layers up the tree alternating between fruit/veggie and cheese. Place the salami right in the middle.
- Finish off with sliced bell pepper on top, then sprinkle pomegranate arils all over the board, and rosemary sprigs to garnish.
- See blog post above for substituting some of the ingredients. You can also place crackers or pretzels around the outside!
