Grazing is is always a fan favorite at parties and get-togethers, and we’re sharing a few tips + tricks to creating the perfect grazing table at home!
— Start with kraft/butcher paper to cover your table
— Pre-cut and prepare all your ingredients (this is where you can get creative! Go the classic route with fruits, meats, cheeses, veggies + nuts; or mix it up an try a vegan style grazing table — you decide!)
— Create a place for each ingredient. There’s no right or wrong way to assemble. Try arranging everything by group, or fanning your items out to create a larger spread
— Use greenery as a base to start, and place your ingredients on top
— Start with a focal point: dips + spreads, then place all the veggies + fruits around the dips
— Make sure you put items closer together in the middle, so there aren’t any holes or gaps
