Directions

Step 1

Start by preparing the cheeses. Cut the cheddar and pepper jack cheese blocks into bite-sized cubes. Arrange them on the tray, grouping them together for easy selection.

Step 2

Roll the prosciutto slices into small spirals and fan them out on the tray. Stack the hard salami slices in neat piles or fold them in quarters for variety.

Wash and thoroughly dry the seedless grapes, cherry tomatoes, and cucumber. Slice the cucumber into thin rounds and arrange them on the tray alongside the cherry tomatoes and grapes.

Step 4

Position the baby carrots in a section of the tray, creating a vibrant pop of color.

Step 5

Pour the mixed olives and mixed nuts into small serving bowls and place them strategically on the tray to add different textures and flavors.

Step 6

Fan out a variety of crackers in another section of the tray for guests to pair with the cheese and meats.

Step 7

Serve the hummus in a small bowl or dish, placing it near the vegetables for dipping.

Step 8

Arrange all items attractively to create a well-balanced party tray. Use decorative greenery or twigs of rosemary to add a finishing touch, if desired.
