Platter up!

May 22, 2020

Platter up! . Wishing everyone a safe and tasteful Memorial Day Weekend. In many places things are opening up and families and friends will gather together. While we meet for barbecues or block parties, a cheese platter can never go wrong. It’s always a crowd pleaser. Just that this time around, let’s make sure a platter remains within the family and does not go beyond that. . A platter like this is so simple to put together and it’s one that every sense appreciates. I’ve always seen a platter is a big hit, when it has many flavors, colors and textures to offer. Sweet and tart fruit, hard and soft cheeses, regular and glazed nuts, meats and veggies, sweets and savories combined and of course you’ve got to have the jams and honeys! . ***Trick to intriguing - play with the colors and patterns as you plate the platter. My daughter and I put this one together. And not only was it a fun task for us, but the results led to some savored appreciation from the boys and us! A great start to the weekend for sure. . . . . . #cheeseplatter #cheeseplate #meatsandcheeses #memorialday #memorialdayweekend #memorialdayideas #stayhome #stayhomestaysafe #quarantine #socialdistancing #socialdistancing2020 #platedexpressions #lovetoeat #cheese #lovecheese #foodphotography #plating #plated #appetizer #appetizerideas #easyrecipes #quickrecipes #easycooking #nocook #platedpics #colorful #loveletterstocheese #finecooking #thewayweeat #thekitchn
