Christmas Tree Charcuterie Board
This charcuterie board could not be easier to put together! It makes such a pretty centerpiece for any holiday event or a party, plus you can assemble it ahead of time. I have three just slightly different variations in the post and I loved them all. It so easy to make little changes based on what you already have on hand.

HOW TO MAKE A CHRISTMAS TREE CHARCUTERIE BOARD
- Using a rectangle shaped board or sheet pan, alternate lines of cheese and meat that will taper to a triangle. Work from the bottom up and include a slice of cheese to use as the tree trunk.
- Tuck sprigs of rosemary around the sides.
- Use a small star cookie cutter to cut stars from cheese slices. Use to top tree and add stars around the tree.
- Add fresh cranberries, black, or green olives as ornaments.
- For something extra special, I added a few Salami Roses to the board.
