Celebrate the season with this festive, elevated vegetarian fall charcuterie board. It's the perfect appetizer for Thanksgiving or holiday parties. Simple to put together, with a variety of flavors and textures, and gorgeous autumn colors.
Ingredients
*Ingredients listed are featured in the photos, see post for many variations.
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 for easy serving. You can also set a bowl off to the side if needed.
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 the cheeses in a triangle around the board, too, to make it the most visually appealing.
Now, add in any other bigger components like fruit slices, veggie slices, and crackers or bread. Continue to fill in smaller remaining spaces with smaller items like berries, nuts, herbs, etc. Place them sporadically around the board for the most interest.
Notes
Please see the post for more suggestions - there are many varieties of dips, jams, produce, and cheeses you can add to the board.
Take this "recipe" as a guide and use what you already have on hand to create a beautiful board, following the guidance in the post on how to assemble the board.
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.
**Look for cheese specifically labeled vegetarian (or microbial enzymes), if needed.
