Are you hosting a holiday get together, but don’t want to be stuck in the kitchen? Then you need to hop on the charcuterie [shahr-koo-tuh–ree] board train and make a pretty platter of your favorite fruits, cheeses, spreads, and meats.
Serve with crackers, crostini’s, and wine and you have a fancy meal. You might remember this Bruschetta Party Platter I have shared before.
I promise you it will be the hit of the fiesta and it’s stress-free entertaining.
My friend’s Karen and Christina styled this charcuterie board for our Friendsgiving Tamalada and they did an amazing job! Doesn’t it look like a piece of art?
Below are some of my favorite ingredients, but feel free to display your favorites.

Just hosted a wine & jewelry party & this board was a big hit! Couldn’t find persimmons and pomegranates, used strawberries and grapes instead… so this is easily adaptable to fruit that’s in season. Quince paste + cheese + crackers = insane deliciousness!
Besides looking beautiful everything was so good. Had never seen one this big, but everything was gone by the time the tamalada was over. Wonderful job girls. Loved it
