Ingredients

  • 1 1/2 ounces of salami
  • 2 ounces of pepperoni salami
  • 4 slices of round ham
  • 4 slices of gouda cheese
  • 3 slices of Eden cheese
  • 10 mini mozzarella balls
  • 1/2 pear
  • 2 figs
  • 1 red bell pepper
  • 16 crackers
  • 1/2 cup grapes
  • 2 almonds
  • 2 sugar eyes (for a bit of fun!)
  • Basil for garnish (optional)

Instructions

  • First, slice your cheeses. For a festive touch, use a cookie cutter to cut the gouda into fall leaves. Cut the Eden cheese into triangles, roll them up, and place them strategically on the board.
  • Rinse your red bell pepper, remove the seeds, and slice it into strips. These will add a bright pop of color to your board.
  • On a large round plate, place half a pear in the center—this is your turkey’s body. Add sugar eyes and a small cheese beak to bring it to life. Use almonds for the turkey’s feet, and voila, your turkey is ready to be dressed!
  • Arrange your salami and pepperoni slices in a fan shape around the pear. Layer in the cheese leaves between the meats for a burst of fall color. Place grapes and mini mozzarella balls around the meats, alternating them to create a lovely pattern.
  • Slice your figs into quarters and add them to the board. Place your folded ham, cheese rolls, and bell pepper strips symmetrically around the turkey. Fill in any gaps with crackers, grapes, and extra mozzarella balls.
