Simple Easter Charcuterie Board Ideas No Cooking

Ingredients

• 2-3 soft cheeses (brie, goat cheese, cream cheese)
• 2-3 hard cheeses (aged cheddar, manchego, gouda)
• 4-6 oz sliced prosciutto or salami
• 1 cup hummus or Easter-themed dip
• 2 cups assorted crackers and breadsticks

Produce

• 1 cup fresh strawberries, hulled and halved
• 1 cup green grapes, washed
• 2 cups baby carrots
• 1 cup snap peas
• 1 cup cherry tomatoes

Extras

• 1/2 cup mixed nuts or almonds
• 1/4 cup honey or jam
• 2-3 hard-boiled eggs, halved (optional Easter touch)

Equipment Needed

• Large wooden board or platter (18-inch minimum)
• Small bowls for dips and spreads
• Cheese knives
• Small spoons for honey and jam

Instructions

1. Set bowls and spreads: Place small bowls for hummus, honey, and jam on your board first, spacing them evenly across the surface. Fill bowls and add small spoons for serving.
2. Add cheeses: Arrange cheeses around the bowls, leaving space between each type. Cut hard cheeses into wedges or cubes. Leave soft cheeses whole with cheese knives nearby.
3. Arrange meats: Roll or fold prosciutto slices and place near cheeses. Fan out salami slices in small groups around the board.
4. Fill with crackers and produce: Fill remaining spaces with crackers, standing some upright for height variation. Add fruits and vegetables in small clusters, using colors to create visual balance across the board.
5. Finish with extras: Scatter nuts in any remaining gaps and place halved hard-boiled eggs as festive Easter touches. The board should look abundant but not overcrowded, with easy access to all items.
