Instructions
Plan your board layout ahead of time by using sticky notes for item placement.
Begin arranging the non-perishable items like crackers, nuts, olives, and vegetables on the board.
Add the Galileo® Salame and Galileo® Pepperoni.
Place cheeses and jars or bowls of spreads around the board.
Add small utensils—forks, spoons, and toothpicks—for easy serving.
Fill in any empty areas with rosemary or other fresh herbs for garnish.
Notes
Plan your layout early to avoid last-minute stress.
Add room-temperature items first so chilled items like meats and cheeses can be placed just before serving.

Refrigerate leftover meats and cheeses.
