Building fun and festive boards is one of the season’s biggest trends. The team of dietitians at Giant are ready to help make charcuter-easy for you this holiday season.

Here are tips from Giant’s dietitians:

  • Choose a variety of cheese. Include three to five different cheeses ranging from mild to bold flavors.
  • Mix up your meats. Charcuterie refers to “cold, cured meats,” so while you can’t skip the salami, add leaner options like chicken sausage.
  • Pick palate cleansers. Whole grain crackers, nuts and seeds add crunch and boost nutrition.
  • Slide in savory and sweet notes. Pack on the produce for a variety of colors and textures. Try different forms like fresh, dried or pickled to deliver unique flavor notes.
  • Finalize with fun and festive. Have fun with your creation by trying different themes or have everyone bring an item to build the holiday board together.
