New Year’s Eve celebrations are just days away…but you can still party in grand style with an easy charcuterie that will be certain to impress! Charcuterie boards are one of my favorite appetizers because they’re super simple to put together even for a last-minute party!

This means you can now add just about ANYTHING you want to your edible display! New Year’s Eve is a perfect opportunity to create this beautiful array of goodies to serve to friends and family. Pull together all the leftover treats from Christmas and serve them right on the tabletop…no special trays or platters needed! I’m really excited to partner with Fun to Eat Fruit to bring you some inspiration for sipping and nibbling the night away! I promise it’s easy and simple but will look every bit as festive as the holiday itself! The year is coming to an end and I’ll wrap it up with my favorite phrase…celebrate simple and celebrate often!
