Let’s make a Keto Charcuterie Board!
This is my go-to for easy snacks or when friends come over. It’s super simple and always a hit! Plus, it’s all keto-friendly, so you don’t have to worry about carbs. Ready? Let’s go!
Things you’ll need:
- Cheese Crisps: These are like chips, but made of cheese! So yummy. Look for fun shapes and sizes.
- Pork Rinds: Salty and crunchy, these are a great snacky base. Get a few flavors if you want!
- Cheese Wedges: Pick your faves! I like cheddar, gouda, and brie. Cut them into cute little triangles.
- Blue Cheese Crumbles: A little bit goes a long way, but it adds so much flavor.
- Nuts: Almonds, walnuts, pecans… mix and match! They add a nice crunch.
- Pickles: Mini dills or spears work well. They give a tangy kick.
- Cucumbers: Slice them up for a fresh, cool bite.
- Deviled Eggs: Make these ahead of time. They’re a yummy protein boost.
- Bell Pepper: Cut into strips. They add color and crunch.
- Salami: Thin slices are best. Roll them up for fun.
- Ham: Get good quality ham, sliced thin. It’s so good!
- Pepperoni: A must for any snack board, right?
- Blueberries: Just a few for a pop of sweetness.
- Olives: Green, black, or both! They’re a salty, tasty treat.
Time to put it all together:
- Get your board ready: Use a big cutting board or a pretty platter. Put down some paper if you want to keep things clean.
- Start with the big stuff: Put the cheese wedges and bowls of blue cheese crumbles on the board first. Space them out.
- Add piles of snacks: Next, put the pork rinds, cheese crisps, and nuts in little piles around the cheese.
- Fill in the gaps: Tuck in the salami, ham, and pepperoni. Make it look pretty! Roll the meat slices if you like.
- Add veggies and eggs: Place the cucumbers, bell pepper strips, and deviled eggs around the board.
- Finish with the small bits: Sprinkle the blueberries and olives here and there. Add the pickles last. They fit in the little spots.
- Keep it cool: Put the whole board in the fridge until you’re ready to eat. You want it all to stay fresh!
See? That was easy! Now you have a yummy, keto-friendly snack board to share. You can change things up each time, too. Use different cheeses, meats, or veggies. Just have fun with it! Your friends will love it!
Layering Like a Pro (It’s Easier Than You Think)
Here’s where the fun begins! Start with your bigger items. Those crispy cheese snacks and pork rinds? They go down first. Spread them around, leaving space for all the other treats. Next up, let’s add some cheese wedges. Mix up the flavors! Maybe some sharp cheddar, creamy brie, or a smoky gouda.
Now, for pops of color and flavor: scatter those blue cheese crumbles, nuts, pickles, and sliced cucumbers. See how it’s coming together already?
Don’t forget the deviled eggs and bell pepper slices. They add a fresh bite and look so pretty. Then, start tucking in the salami, ham, and pepperoni. Fold them, roll them, stack them—however you like!
Last but not least, add little piles of blueberries and olives. They fill in any gaps and give us those sweet and salty notes.
Pro Tip: Don’t stress about making it perfect! Part of the charm of a charcuterie board is its rustic, abundant feel.
Make It Your Own (Mix It Up!)
This is your chance to get creative! No cheese crisps? Use baked parmesan chips instead. Not a fan of pork rinds? Try some salted nuts or seeds.
You can also switch up the meats and veggies. Love spicy food? Add some sliced jalapeños or chorizo. Got some leftover roasted veggies? Throw them on!
Feel free to use what you have on hand and what you know you’ll enjoy.
Keeping it Fresh (Store It Right)
Planning to make this ahead? No problem! Just cover the whole board with plastic wrap or foil and pop it in the fridge. It’ll stay fresh for a few hours.
Important: Take it out of the fridge about 30 minutes before serving. This lets the cheese soften up a bit, making it extra yummy.
Serving Time (Let’s Eat!)
When your friends arrive, just uncover your masterpiece and let them dig in! Put out some small plates and napkins, maybe some toothpicks for grabbing those olives and pickles.
Oh, and don’t forget the drinks! A crisp white wine or some sparkling water with lemon slices are great choices.
There you have it! A keto charcuterie board that’s easy, tasty, and totally impressive. Now go enjoy! You’ve got this!
