  • 2 mini bell pepper halves

Instructions

  • Prepare and arrange the vegetables: Arrange cucumber rounds and mini pepper halves in open spaces for colour and crunch.
    1 cups cucumber, 3 mini bell pepper
  • Add the fruit: Wash and pat dry the berries. Thinly slice the green apple and fan the slices along the edge of the board. (Portion guide: ~¼ cup berries and a few apple slices per person.)

Cooking Tips

  • Use Pre-Sliced or Prepped Veggies: Save time by buying pre-washed and sliced mini peppers and cucumber.
  • Keep Juicy Items Contained: Place berries in a small bowl to keep other board ingredients crisp and dry.
  • Fan for Presentation: Fan apple slices and crackers to make the board visually appealing and easy to grab from.
  • Season Smart: A little cracked pepper or chopped fresh herbs can brighten the cheese and elevate the whole board.
  • Sub as Needed: Swap salmon for hard-boiled eggs, cheese for vegan alternatives, or crackers for gluten-free versions.
  • Scale Up or Down: Double the ingredients for 4 people or halve for a solo snack board.
