Instructions
Choose your serving cups; they could be mini bowls, large ramekins, jars, or champagne coupes.
On a cutting board, cut two types of cheeses into small bite sized pieces and cut one or two hard cheeses into slices and place them in the serving cups.
Wash and dry any fruit you’ve got, slice it or add as a whole to the cup.
Roll the salami or smoked turkey forming a nice looking flower and place it in the center of the cup.
Place the crackers or breadsticks resting on the edge of the cup.
Place one macaroon in each cup alongside a handful of nuts or dried fruit.
Finally garnish with fresh thyme or rosemary, cover with plastic wrap and sit in the fridge until needed or simply serve right away. Enjoy!
