Charcuterie Wreath
Ingredients
“There’s no right way to make this, whatever snack foods you enjoy that’ll fit on a toothpick work. We like to take a Caprese approach since the colors work well for Christmas.”
- 8 oz. fresh mozzarella pearls
- 1 pint cherry tomatoes
- 2 oz. basil
- 8 oz. block Monterey jack cheese
- 12 oz. summer sausage
- 16 oz. gherkin pickles
- toothpicks
Directions
Cut summer sausage into 1/2-in thick disks, and then each disk into fourths.
Cut gherkin pickles so they are half their original size in length.
Cube cheese into 1-in pieces
Place items on toothpicks (mozzarella, basil, and cherry tomatoes go together)
Arrange toothpicks in a circle on a large plate. Garnish with basil or other greens to give a garland wreath effect.
