First Comes the Fruit!
The start of your turkey charcuterie board will be the pear used for the turkey’s body. It is SO cute! The key to making this board turn out so festive are the colors from the fruits that you pick!

Use shapes: I love using cookie cutters to make different shapes out of the cheeses! Then, I like to use a small leaf-shaped cookie cutter to cut the cheeses and salami. It really makes the board stand out! Add Veggies: An excellent way to bring in some more flavor and nutrition are to add fresh vegetables. I love using carrots and small bell peppers to add to the fall colors of the board.Make it Kid-Friendly: Sometimes, I’ll make one for the kids and one for the adults. Try adding goldfish, cheez-its, fruit snacks, or marshmallows. These are SO fun to make and then everyone is happy!
