1 cup mixed olives (green and black)

1/2 cup dried figs

1/2 cup mixed nuts (almonds and walnuts)

1/2 cup honey or fruit preserves (for drizzling)

Fresh herbs (rosemary or thyme) for garnish

Variety of crackers and baguette slices

Instructions
 

Prepare Your Board: Choose a large wooden cheese board or a platter as your base. Arrange the crackers and baguette slices in a circular or fan shape around the edges of the board to create a nice perimeter.

    Arrange the Meats: In the center or in small clusters, place the prosciutto, salami, and chorizo. You can roll or fold the slices for visual interest.

      Add Cheeses: Next, add the cheddar cubes, brie slices, and crumbled blue cheese. Space them out so that they are easy to reach, making sure to consider varying heights for a more visually appealing layout.

        Incorporate Fruits: Place grapes, cherry tomatoes, and dried figs around the meats and cheeses. The pop of color adds to the overall presentation and balances the savory flavors.

          Include Olives and Nuts: Scatter the mixed olives and nuts throughout the board, filling in any empty spaces.

            Drizzle with Sweetness: Use a small bowl or drizzle honey or fruit preserves over the board. You can also serve it in a small bowl beside the board for easy dipping.

              Garnish: Finally, add fresh herbs like rosemary or thyme around the board as garnish to enhance the aroma and visual appeal.

                Serve: Invite your guests to enjoy the charcuterie board, encouraging them to mix and match flavors. Pair with a selection of wines for an elevated experience!
