Ideas for a Successful Holiday Cheese Board

This post is sponsored by Martha Stewart Living and Boursin® Cheese.

With the holidays upon us, I thought I would bring you some of my favorite tips on how to put together a beautiful cheese board. When putting together a cheese board, I try to have a variety of different types of cheese. Boursin® Cheese, with its creamy and crumbly texture makes the perfect addition to any cheese board. Of course no charcuterie would be complete without meat. Try to add something different to your board like spicy Capocollo or Jamon Serrano to steer away from the usual suspects, salami and prosciutto.

I always, always add nuts to my boards. Not only it is a delicious addition but it adds a wonderful texture. Also, fresh or dried fruit for a touch of sweetness, olives with pits (these are way more flavorful), your favorite crackers and jam. I love fig jam particularly, it goes so well with a strong cheese or a creamy cheese like Boursin® Cheese. Need more inspiration?
