Winter Burrata Charcuterie Board
Cheese boards will forever be my go-to party appetizer or dish to share. They come together in no time; they’re always a hit and easy to make! And yes, we found cherries at our local Fred Meyer, in December! AMAZING! :)
I know we’re all looking for ways to connect with loved ones this year, but if we save some of these ideas for next year too, it’s fun to dream.
Charcuterie board
Dreaming about hosting again is first on my mind. I can’t wait for those gatherings, but for now, getting together means fewer people, yes, but we’re still enjoying good food! Like this Winter Burrata Charcuterie Board.

So good, all you need are these ingredients:
- Burrata minis (4 in a container) – I buy at Fred Meyer’s or Trader Joe’s

What is burrata?
Burrata as a thin layer of fresh mozzarella stretched around a creamy middle made of soft curd and cream. It’s very soft to touch, and in my mind, heavenly.
It’s super fresh!
Gift ideas to share
If you’re not planning on any gatherings this rest of this year, here are a few gifts you can make and drop off for friends:
- Box up a few small charcuterie items
- Downton Abbey Lavender Tea Bread
- Hot Russian Tea Mix
- Hot Buttered Rum
- Apple Carrot Dog Biscuits
- Cinnamon Honey Butter
Try to send some small homemade gifts that say, I’m looking forward to getting together when all of this is over, and I’m thinking about you!
We can also think about the small things, like Christmas cards, Zoom chats, calls, and text messages. Or a good old-fashioned call on the phone! I called one of my best foodie buddies this week and we talked for over an hour, catching up. We hadn’t talked since before the pandemic!
For now, enjoy this delicious winter salad!
Burrata cheese is one of my favorites. It’s so pillowy-soft and smooth, and delicious spread open with a drizzle of oil on top! Just look at the photos!
ENJOY!
