How to Prepare Holiday Cheese Board
🌹 First, arrange salami in a circle to form a rose in the middle. 🍍 Next, spread pineapple cream cheese on one side, and place blue cheese on the opposite side. 🔻 Then, cut the brie into triangles and arrange on each side of the rose. 🧀 Now cube Tickler cheese and havarti, placing them on opposite sides so that they contrast each other. ⭐ Place crisps between the salami rose and cream cheese. 🍇 Add green grapes on opposite sides of the plate, along with two small jars of jam. 🫒 Put a bowl of olives between the salami rose and Tickler. 🌰 Cut up figs and add them to the top of the plate or board. 🥕 Fill in the remaining spaces with your favorite ingredients. Be creative and enjoy!
