Instructions

  1. Prep and Wash all ingredients going onto board.
  2. Start by gathering small and medium bowls, and place your mixes, nuts, candies, and loose nibbles into bowls and jars.
  3. Wash fruit, and allow to sit for a few minutes on some paper towels to absorb the water. Remove cheese from fridge about 20 minutes before serving, this will give it time to soften.

Assemble Breakfast Charcuterie

  1. Watch the video below for the show and tell version on how to make this easy brunch charcuterie boards! P.S. There is no right or wrong way to make a charcuterie board!
  2. If using a board or tray, make sure it is food safe (it should say on the bottom of the board); if not, or for easy clean up line with parchment or butcher paper.
  3. If desired, lay down some non-toxic leaves, to add an all-natural, seasonal look -- I purchased mine from our grocery florist.
  4. Start from the center, working your way outward. I used the bowl of granola to anchor the eye for the center of the board, then surrounded the bowl with the jars of yogurt.
  5. Near an edge, so people can get at it easily, place the cheese log and crackers -- don't forget a cheese spreader.
  6. Add any larger objects (cheese straws, oranges, scones, cookies, etc)
  7. Then start tucking in your small bowls filled with nuts, chocolates, fruit and other nibbles.
  8. Use the grapes and raspberries to fill in your gaps, as well as a nibble that will stand on its own.

Notes

  • *Charcuterie Boards and Trays | Be creative, you might even have something around the house you can use, lazy Susan, trays, cutting boards; you can even cover your table or counter with plastic wrap and then line with butcher paper if you don't have a board. I love this large Magnolia Wooden Tray from Target.
  • TFC PRO TIP #1 | Make sure your board is food safe, if not, you can still use it, but I do suggest lining it with butcher paper or parchment paper.
  • parchment paper
  • TFC PRO TIP# 2 | There is no right or wrong way to assemble a charcuterie board, there is no right or wrong items to put on a grazing board. This will be delicious using brands, products, fruits, cheese, crackers that you enjoy! These are simply suggestions to take some guesswork out of it!
