Monthly Product Spotlight: Charcuterie Board Tips

Go from boring to beautiful grazing boards with just a few tips.

How to pronounce it? “Shar COO tare ree” means cured meats. If you do not add meats, it’s really just a cheese board, platter, or grazing board, but a charcuterie board is so much more fun to say. This free roadmap for building beautiful boards will make it so much more fun to serve your friends and family, too. Get your free tip sheet here. Read more about charcuterie boards here.

What can you expect from this resource?

✔️5 easy steps to building a charcuterie board

✔️ tools to assemble (you probably already own all you need to use)

✔️ tips on selecting fruits, veggies, meats, cheeses, and gap fillers

✔️ tips on what types of combinations to use

✔️ tips on approximate amounts per person

✔️ inspiration to make a snack plate for lunch today

✔️ printable PDF to put in your recipe file or save digitally

Cost: FREE (But if you LOVE it, feel free to contribute to my coffee fund linked at the bottom of this newsletter!)
