Ingredients
  

Cheeses
  • 8 oz brie cheese
  • 8 oz white cheddar cheese
  • 6 oz blue cheese
  • 8 oz mozzarella pearls
Fruits
  • 1 cup strawberries, halved
  • 1 cup raspberries
  • 1 cup blueberries
  • 1 red apple sliced
Additional Items
  • 1 cup salami slices
  • 1 cup assorted crackers
  • 0.5 cup roasted almonds
  • 0.25 cup honey
  • 1 Fresh rosemary sprigs
  • 1 White chocolate-covered pretzels

Method
 

Build the board
  1. Place the brie, cheddar, and blue cheese on a large serving board.
  2. Arrange crackers around the cheeses so they create a frame for the center.
  3. Fill open spaces with strawberries, raspberries, and blueberries for even red, white, and blue color.
  4. Add folded salami roses for visual appeal across the board.
  5. Scatter mozzarella pearls throughout the board so you get small pops of white in every section.
  6. Add roasted almonds and white chocolate-covered pretzels for crunch and contrast.
  7. Drizzle honey over the brie if desired to highlight the creamy texture.
  8. Garnish with fresh rosemary sprigs for a fresh herbal finish.
Chill and serve
  1. Chill until ready to serve, about 30 minutes to help the board look tidy.
  2. Serve immediately after chilling so crackers stay crisp and fruit stays bright.

Notes

For the cleanest look, place the berries and apple last and keep the board cool until guests arrive. Refrigerate covered up to 1 day; crackers may soften slightly after refrigeration. Freezing is not recommended. If you want a lighter option, use part-skim mozzarella pearls and reduced-fat cheeses while keeping the same arrangement for the patriotic presentation.
