Who Doesn’t Love Cheese?!
One of our favorite appetizers is a Charcuterie Board. They offer variety and are extremely customizable! Our best-loved, and the one we make most often is a classic cheese and crackers board with some of our favorite dips (like Artichoke Dip, Knorr Spinach Dip, Cream Cheese Green Chili dip and more). It’s simple, yet packed with flavorful bites! Why we love it:
Make it your own. The best part of Charcuterie Boards is the ability to easily change it up and add your favorites! Ready in minutes. Opt for store-bought dips so all that’s left to do is simply fill the board and it’s ready to enjoy! Party perfect. Because there can be so much variety, and you can make it as large or small as needed, a cheese and cracker board is perfect for large gatherings, celebrations, BBQs, and parties!
