Simple Vegetarian Charcuterie Board
Ingredients
*Ingredients listed are featured in the photos, see post for a variety of ideas.
Cheese**
- 8 ounces cheddar cheese cubed, aged
- 8 ounces gouda sliced; or another soft or semi-soft cheese
- 4 ounces blue cheese crumbled as needed
Savory
- ½ cup olive use your favorite!
- ¼ cup cornichons mini
- ½ cup mixed nuts
- 1 cup tomato roasted
- 1 cup artichokes marinated
Fresh Produce
- 4 celery cut into 2-3 inch pieces, stalks
- 1 cup Blueberry fresh
- 1 cup blackberry fresh
SPREADS & DIPS
- ¼ cup blueberry jam
- 2 Tablespoons honey
CRACKERS
- cracker crisps
- water cracker
- Crostini
Instructions
- Start by placing any items that will be in bowls on the board, in a spread-out triangle shape. I recommend placing dips or jams in bowls, as well as anything too "wet" like the roasted tomatoes and marinated artichokes. You can also set a bowl off to the side if needed, as I did with the pickles and olives.
- Next, add in the cheeses, already cut into serving portions, with the exception of blue cheese, which you can start the crumble on the board (or a triple creme that people can spread themselves). Place them in a triangle around the board, too, to make it the most visually appealing.
- Now, add in any other bigger components like veggie slices and crackers (in my board's case), and then continue to fill in smaller remaining spaces with smaller items like berries, nuts, olives, etc. Place them sporadically around the board for the most interest.
- Don't put everything out at once! This will overwhelm the board. Instead, keep the extras in a convenient place so you can continue to replenish the board as time goes on.
Notes
- Take this as a guide and use what you already have on hand to create a beautiful board, following the guidance in the post for how to assemble the board.
- There are a variety of dips and jams you can include on the board; see the post for more ideas.
**Look for cheese specifically labeled vegetarian (or microbial enzymes), if needed.
Whole Foods, Trader Joe's, and ALDI have a great selection. Old Amsterdam makes a delicious vegetarian Gouda.
