  • 6-7 pieces cheese pigtail or make thing stripes from mozzarella string cheese
  • 1 cup mozzarella balls
  • 1 cup blueberries
  • 8-10 slices cured meat ham, beef, turkey, or pepperoni slice

  • 1 cup strawberries
  • 1/2 cup dates optional
  • 1/4 cups almonds
  • 1/4 cups pistachios
  • 1 tbsp sliced black olives
  • 1 cup grapes

Instructions

  • Cut a little from the bottom of the cheese circle to create a semicircle, forming Santa's face. Place it on a clean round wooden board or bamboo board with the cut corner down. I used a large woven placemat.
    1 round cheese
  • Add mozzarella balls to the bottom of the circle cheese to create Santa's beard. Use pigtail cheese for the mustache and hair.
    6-7 pieces cheese pigtail, 1 cup mozzarella balls
  • Place a halved cherry tomato in the center of the pigtail cheese to serve as Santa's nose.
    1-2 cherry tomatoes
  • And halved slices of black olives will be Santa's eyes.
    1 tbsp sliced black olives
  • Line up strawberries on top of Santa's head to form his hat. Cut a small circle of cheese to serve as the ball of Santa's hat.
    1 cup strawberries
  • Place a small bowl with honey for dipping next to Santa's face.
    1/4 cup honey
  • Arrange blueberries around the hat and the top of the face to give a good contrast to Santa hat. Grapes can go to the left side of Santa.
    1 cup blueberries
  • Then make a row of chili olives at the very top of the board.
    1 cup olives with chili
  • Create a ham rose and place it at the bottom of the board. Arrange the remaining slices of meat next to it.
    8-10 slices cured meat
  • Add nuts and dried fruits to the remaining space on the board for additional texture and flavor.
    1/2 cup dates, 1/4 cups almonds, 1/4 cups pistachios, 1 cup grapes
  • Once your Christmas snack board is assembled, it's ready to be served and enjoyed by your guests.
