Ingredients
- 2 logs of plain goat cheese The Humble Goat chèvre
- Cured meats: sliced salami prosciutto, and ham or capicola
- Assorted crackers:
- o Multigrain seed crackers
- o Round wheat or whole-grain crackers
- Pickles: a small bowl of cornichons
- Fruit: a bunch of red grapes both light and dark

Instructions
- Center the Cheese
- o Place 1 or 2 plain chèvre logs in the center or off-center of the board. Leave one in the packaging if desired for branding, and one opened for serving.
- Add the Meats
- o Fan out slices of salami, prosciutto, and ham around the cheese in clusters. Layer them loosely for texture and easy grabbing.
- Position the Crackers
- o Arrange a mix of round crackers and multigrain crisps in stacks or semi-circles around the board for balance. Tuck a few near the cheese for easy pairing.
- Add the Pickles
- o Fill a small bowl or ramekin with cornichons and place near the meats for acidity and crunch.
- Fruit & Freshness
- o Add a handful of grapes, keeping them on the stem for visual appeal. Nestle them opposite the pickles for color contrast.
