INSTRUCTIONS

1. Thinly slice figs lengthwise and arrange them on a platter.

Summer might be ending but this board is perfect for the holidays and all year-round! I got the one with separate compartments but I think the single compartment would travel even better. Plus, they now have a round version 💛🧀

Dip in with the TJ’s Fig & Olive crackers and you have the PERFECT BITE!! More below ⬇️

If you missed the video about the difference between burrata, mozzarella & stracciatella go two posts back.

Now I know that the shaved frozen fruit trend has been around for a while, but I have to say that the strawberry combo here is one of the best ones I’ve had. NOTE: Be sure to serve right away. BUT if you don’t want to go throw the trouble of freezing, simply serve with strawberry slices.

In fact, I got the frozen strawberry idea off the TJ’s website. It’s a great resource if you ever are unsure of how to serve something.

Also note that I added a drizzle of balsamic glaze here. And while it looked pretty, it’s not necessary at all. In fact, it took away from the strawberry.

Cheese 101

#LTKFindsUnder100 #LTKHome #LTKSeasonal

INGREDIENTS
* 13 oz brie
* 2 oz blueberry jam
* 4 yogurt covered pretzels
* string cheese
* 16 oz young manchego, sliced evenly lengthwise & height wise into triangles
* 12 oz @columbusmeats Italian Dry Salame
* @columbusmeats Charcuterie Tasting Board (I used the Calabrese Salame, Castelvetrano olives & chocolate covered cranberries from here)
* 10 oz mild cheddar, cubed
* 30 oz dark purple grapes
* 8 dried orange slices
 
INSTRUCTIONS
1. Place brie in the freezer for 15-20 minutes to allow for easier cutting.
2. For the brie skull, cut wedges out of the sides of the bottom third of the cheese (to make a mushroom-like shape), then carefully slice the brie in half.
3. Using the top half of the brie, use a paring knife to cut out a rectangle for the mouth, a triangle for the nose and circles for both eyes. NOTE: suggest using a small round cookie cutter for the eyes.
4. Use one slice of the manchego to create 5 small square “teeth” to be placed in the mouth after step 5.
5. Dollop blueberry jam on bottom half of brie, then cover with the top half of the brie.
6. Place the manchego teeth in the mouth.
7. Once the skull is assembled, trim and perfect any edges of the skull before placing at the top of your board. NOTE: I took some of the sides off to make it narrower. 
8. Place the yogurt covered pretzels under the brie skull to create a neck, then place string cheese directly under that.
9. On each side of the string cheese, layer manchego slices (alternating triangles) into a crescent shape to create the ribcage.
10. Fold the Italian Dry Salame into quarters and line inside of the “manchego ribcage.”
11. line the top edges of the board with Calabrese Salame. Then, fill a ramekin with Castelvetrano olives and another ramekin with chocolate cranberries and place on each side of the board.
12. Decorate the rest of the board with cheddar cubes, grapes and dried oranges. Enjoy!

Ingredients below ⬇️ The only thing I would add the next time is some flakey salt to help season the egg before the other ingredients. Since many people have been using mayo and other sauces on top, I think the salt will help make the egg yolk more like a condiment. You could always make it a deviled egg, but I really love just topping the egg straight-up.

Big thanks to @hipfoodiemom1 for this viral trend. So fun!

COMBOS:
1. aged cheddar and cornichons and dill
2. blt and gouda (prosciutto, avocado, tomato)
3. brie, hot honey
4. Parmigiano Reggiano, peperoncini, bread crumbs, Italian dressing
5. blue cheese, balsamic, potato chip
