Build Your Board
  1. Place small bowls first. Use small bowls for dips and any produce that may leak juices. Or use Easter shape cookie cutters as a way to organize smaller-sized ingredients like fresh berries, nuts, and candies.
  2. Place each grouping of meat and cheese in different spots on the board.
  3. Add the different groupings of crackers on the board.
  4. Fill in any empty spots with the fruits, vegetables, and sweet treats.
  5. Decorate with green herbs and other festive Easter treats.

Notes

  • For larger events you can find a larger board or use several regular-sized  boards and place them in different areas around the room.
  • The most beautiful and delicious boards are ones that offer contrasting colors, textures and flavors.
  • Only place a sampling of each of the different elements on the board and refill as needed.
  • Arrange the items so that there's a pattern, or symmetry, or make it look random.
