The countdown to Easter is on, but it’s not too late! Today, I’m sharing one of my favorite last-minute ways to please a crowd: with the always-popular charcuterie board. You can easily go sweet or savory or both, so find one that speaks to you and let me know how it turns out!
Some tips:
- I find most of my charcuterie items at Trader Joe’s, Aldi or Lidl, Costco (if it’s a larger party), Target, and local grocers. These stores have great, fairly priced meat and cheese options, and many of them offer pre-sliced cheeses to save you some time.
- Charcuterie boards don’t need to be expensive! Select options you and your guests will likely love – don’t load up on the fancy, expensive cheeses unless you know they’re sure to be loved.
- Consider adding little pick labels to the different cheeses for easy identification.
