Cozy charcuterie board
My son helped me with this board, with only a few ingredients. And since summer tomatoes are so ripe and lovely right now, include a giant ring of Caprese salad with fresh basil leaves. Fill in with salami, crackers, cucumbers, olives. SO GOOD!
Caprese Salad
And who doesn’t love caprese salad this time of year? (I love our Farmer’s Market here in Bend, OR!)
And soft, fresh burrata!
Salami Caprese Charcuterie Board
For our family, hosting others is all about connecting, and then bringing that intention to the table.
When we taste cozy foods (this board? so cozy), with delicious wines from around the world … just WOW, oh, WOW!
Something wonderful and special happens every time.
I love this quote. It’s true, we get pretty caught up in ourselves, when with only a little work, time, and money, we can invest in others.
“Develop an interest in life as you see it; the people, things, literature, music – the world is so rich, simply throbbing with rich treasures, beautiful souls and interesting people. Forget yourself.” – Henry Miller
We could all do with forgetting ourselves a little more, I think. Doing for others, including them, being intentional with sharing our gifts with others, is what the world needs more of.
A little bit of intention and a little bit of love.
Combine it with a charcuterie board? A cozy, lovely gathering.

How to make a Salami Charcuterie Board
Start with a plate in the center with burrata, olives, and cherry tomatoes.
Next layer tomatoes with mozzarella cheese and fresh basil leaves to make a ring of Caprese salad.
Skip to the outside of the board (this is why it’s important to have a 2-inch lip on a charcuterie board), and layer your favorite crackers. (See this Grilled Fruit Vegetable Charcuterie Board? Another reason why you need a large board with a “lip” to hold the food in place!)
Fill in circular rows of salami and cucumber!
You’ve got a party!
Oh, and I’m always happy when one of my kids carries this giant board for me. LOL It’s super heavy, but it’s perfect for feeding a crowd!
Happy Hosting!
