Let’s face it, we can all get into a rut when it comes to what we eat. Even group fellowships can fall into a routine that isn’t nearly as fun as it should be!
Last week our small group broke out of the traditional meals (Mexican, Italian, Pizza, etc) and had a Charcuterie Board meal! Everyone was instructed to go check out some ideas on Pinterest and bring a board that would be suitable for supper. Here’s a pic of all the boards spread on my kitchen counter…

I decided to do a Baked Potato Board with all the fixings, as well as a Fruit and Chocolate Board.
It was so much fun to put these boards together! Here’s a peek at the potato board…
I used Yukon Gold potatoes. I sprayed them with cooking spray, pierced them with a knife, then salted them with coarse salt. I roasted them at 400 degrees for one hour. I served them with
- Sour cream
- Butter
- Guacamole
- Cheese
- Ham cubes
- Green onions
If you make a board like this, the toppings could also include bacon, chili, and salsa.
The Fruit and Chocolate Board included:
- Grapes
- Strawberries
- Fresh Pineapple
- Salted peanuts
- Almonds
- Vanilla Wafter and Hazelnut Spread
- Chocolate covered Macadamia Nuts
This was a really fun meal and got us out of our normal routine! I am already gathering ideas of other boards that include Walking Taco Board and a Breakfast Board.
I encourage you to refresh your next group gathering and give this a try the next time you have an event! You can really get creative and the results are delicious!
Have you made a charcuterie board yet? What was your theme?

That is a beautiful presentation. What a wonderful idea. I have two daughter in laws that are very creative and both do a beautiful job on their boards.
Thanks so much for sharing!

I haven’t really made a charcuterie board. These are beautiful, and what a fun idea to structure an entire fellowship meal around this theme! Thanks for the inspiration!
