Recommended Tools:

Small white bowls
Line your board with parchment paper to help protect it

Ingredients:

Pepper Jack cheese block
Salami
Pepperoni
Raspberries
Blackberries
Yogurt-covered pretzels
Almond nut thins (or crackers)
Red, white, and blue candy coins
Red, white, and blue gumballs
Red, white, and blue suckers

How to Make Fourth of July Charcuterie Board

Cut the cheese into pieces that are just larger than the star cookie cutter. Then slice the cheese into 4 slices. Use the cookie cutter to cut stars out of the cheese.

Roll the salami into a thin cone shape.

Add the blackberries, raspberries, and gumballs to small white bowls. Arrange these small bowls onto the board first.

Arrange the salami next, as it will take up some space.

Then arrange the other ingredients, trying to alternate with the colors.

Add the candy coins next, filling in any empty spaces.

Tips and tricks

You can really use whatever red, white, and blue ingredients you like, customizing it to your liking. You can use more or fewer amounts of each ingredient, too, depending on the size of your board..

Additional Foods in Red, White & Blue

More Red Foods: Add a combination of meats you like. Try prosciutto, soppressata, or other deli meats. Plus, fresh fruit like red grapes, watermelon, cherries, or pomegranate.

More White Foods: White foods could include other white cheese such as cheddar, provolone, or Monterey Jack. Try white cheddar popcorn, mini mozzarella balls, pistachio nuts in shells, or crackers that you like.

More Blue Foods: Try blueberries, figs, purple olives, or even blue cheese.
