Although charcuterie boards are typically meat and meat alone, our vegan version is more of a plant-based cheese platter/charcuterie/veggie tray hybrid. Here’s the foundation for plating the perfect plant-based spread:
Hummus (for extra flavour, try our Mediterranean Balsamic Hummus recipe)
Pate (try our Braised Onion and Carrot or our Mushroom Pate recipe)
Crackers or bread
Veggies (we like carrots, peppers, and cucumber)
Vegan Cheese (try making our Vegan Almond Feta!)
Fruit of choice (we like grapes, figs, pears, or apples)
Dip (try making our Zucchini Chickpea or Middle Eastern Eggplant dips)
Pickled Veggies (Pro-tip: to make quick-pickled red onions, simply soak sliced red onion in white wine vinegar with a bit of salt and sugar for 30 minutes. Easy peasy.)
Optional: plant-based sausages
To prepare:
Simply arrange the goods in an aesthetically-pleasing fashion on a wooden cooking board or a platter. Arrive at your party, and prepare yourself for fellow partiers to be wowed by your magnificent meatless melange.
That’s all! Do you have any suggestions for a plant-based charcuterie board? Spread the word. Happy partying!
