Thanksgiving Charcuterie Boards
Create stunning Thanksgiving Charcuterie Boards with meats, cheeses, and sweets–beautifully garnished and fun to share with loved ones! Make on 20" or 26" BIG BOARD.
Ingredients
- ¾ pound cured meat, salami
- ¾ pound prosciutto
- ¾ pound hard aged cheese
- ¾ pound blue cheese
- 1 8 oz brie cheese, filled with jam
- 4 yellow cheese slices, to spell out "Grateful" with cookie cutter
- ½ cup green olives
- ¼ cup pumpkin seeds, make sure they are like in the picture below
- ⅓ cup marcona almonds
- ⅓ cup pecans
- 1 cup fruit, sliced apple, pears, dried apricots
- 1 English cucumber, small slices (maybe only use 1/4-1/2?)
- 12 ounces assorted crackers, I like the little rosemary square ones from Trader Joe’s
- Dried cherries or cranberries, to fill in any open areas
- fresh sage and rosemary, for garnish
- 2 cups Thanksgiving sweets, chocolates, maple leaf cookies, candy corn
- ½ cup jam
Instructions
- Place the larger ingredients on a giant board (with a lip, so the food stays on the board), such as the cheeses, jam and a bowl of olives.
- Next, add crackers, and fresh and dried fruit to the board.
- Add the fall themed treats and meats to the platter. [We buy at Trader Joe's a mix of leaf cookies, candies, etc.]
- Fill in any gaps with nuts and seeds.
- Garnish with fresh herbs, then serve.
