Healthy Charcuterie Board Ideas

Using these healthy charcuterie board ideas you can create a board that will not only be delicious but will wow your family and friends at your next dinner party.

How to make a charcuterie board

A good charcuterie board has a balance of flavors and textures with items that contrast and complement each other. Some contrast could be chewy cured meat to smooth dip such as hummus. Add something spicy to contrast sweet. You could add hard and crips crackers with soft chewy bread.

How to pronounce charcuterie

The word charcuterie originated in France, and it translates to “pork-butcher shop.” While the original French translation refers to pork, our charcuterie boards tend to include other types of food, such as fruits, vegetables, a variety of cured meats, nuts, spreads, crackers, dips, and bread.

Charcuterie Board Ideas

A charcuterie board can be made out of a wood cutting board, a metal tray, a stone cutting board, or a large flat ceramic platter. I used a wooden tray in the picture above. Just let your imagination go, look around your home to find an interesting serving item to start creating your charcuterie on.

Here are a few ideas to get you started.
