Green Charcuterie Board Ideas

A charcuterie board is essentially an artfully arranged selection of meats, cheeses, fruits and crackers that can be customized based on your tastes and preferences. You substitute these green ingredients for the ones I used.

• Green Vegetables: edamame, zucchini, green peppers, celery, okra, avocado
• Green Fruit: grapes, kiwi, green apple slices
• Pickled Vegetables: sweet pickles, dill pickles, mini gherkins, okra, green beans
• Other Green finger Food Ideas: green decorated snacks, cookies, cupcakes, candy, popcorn,

Bread and Cracker ideas:

Rye bread slices, WASA rye crackers, Carr’s table water crackers, Cheez-its Crackers, soda crackers, pretzels.

Board Ideas

Get creative by arranging the food items in a shamrock shape. Use St Paddy’s Day colors like green and white or add a rainbow in the center with some fun gold chocolate coins! Make the board in the shape of a leprechaun using the greens as his hat and orange cheez-its or Cheetos as his beard! The possibilities are endless!

INSTRUCTIONS 

MAKE A CHARCUTERIE SALAMI ROSE

• To make a charcuterie rose you can use a shot glass or small mouth glass.
• Place a pice of salami evenly draped over the edge of the glass.
• Drape another piece of salami over the edge of the glass over lapping halfway on the first piece of salami. Pressing them each slice together as you layer them. Repeat using 10-12 pieces of salami.
• Flip the glass over, lightly press it into the board and gently pull out the glass from the meat to create a rose.

CREATE CHEESE CLOVERS

• Lay the cheese slices out on a piece of wax or parchment paper. Press a clover shaped cookie cutter into cheese slices to make the shamrocks.

CREATING THE CHARCUTERIE BOARD

• Fold the peppered salami in half and then fold it again into quarters. Stack the salami together in a line, use a toothpick to hold the salami together. Set them aside.
• Roll the corned beef slices and set aside.
• Place the cheese on the board first. Place them in different areas so they do not touch.
• Place the vegetables on the board.
• Place the rolled corned beef, salami roses and peppered salami on the board.
• Add the soft pretzel ball and olives.
• Stack crackers to fill in spaces.
• Garnish with kiwi (if using) and serve!
