INSTRUCTIONS:

Prepare your platter for arranging and have all of your ingredients ready to go. Start by arranging any components you’re serving in bowls on the platter.

Place the larger items on the board, using the bowls as your starting point. Think about textures, shapes, and colors when deciding what goes where.

As you start placing your items, don’t worry about filling in empty spaces. Keep some of each item to fill in later, if needed. To add texture, roll up, fold, or fan out the meat, crumble or slice the cheese. To add shape, think about placing contrasting items near each other and putting similarly shaped items further away from each other. Also, to add contrast to your board mix up the colors.

Keep flavors that go nicely together near each other.

Once you’ve placed all your main components, fill in holes with nuts or crackers.
