Festive Charcuterie Board

Estimated time to read 2 minutes

Free-range snacking is all the rage, and we are here for it, especially when it involves eating the rainbow and finger foods. We love that charcuterie boards incorporate many colors, textures, flavors, and food groups; they’re also a fun way to involve little ones in the social aspect of eating. And they might even get to practice that pincer grasp while they're exploring their options! Who knew they were so great for everyone in the fam?!

Whether you’re hosting an upcoming holiday party or just looking for a way to deconstruct dinner to make it more fun and playful (yet still nutritious), this festive charcuterie board is family-friendly, toddler-approved, and super cute, too! Our one must-have when making our charcuterie boards? Our grain-free puffs! (If you’ve ever wondered why we’re grain-free, check this article out).

Here’s what you’ll need

• Sweet Pepper & Basil Grain Free Puffs (or any flavor you have on hand; shop all puffs here)
• Mini dill pickles (with no added sugar)
• Mini bell peppers, sliced (we used orange, yellow, and red)
• Sliced organic cucumbers
• Organic raspberries
• Organic blueberries
• Organic blackberries
• Grass-fed cheddar cheese (or non-dairy hard cheese option of choice)
• Nitrate-free & paleo-friendly salami
• Sliced black olives
• Roam ranch meat sticks, sliced into small chunks
• Crumbled goat cheese (or non-dairy cheese soft option of choice)
• Sliced organic apples, one red, one green (thinly sliced)
• Rosemary sprigs (for decoration)

*Serve board ASAP upon making for maximum freshness and crunch that little ones love! Unlike other brands, we do not use preservatives in order to provide babies and toddlers with the most nutrition per bite with none of the junk! Serving ASAP prevents the puffs from absorbing moisture in the air and losing some of their crunch after an extended period of time.
