Make no mistake, we love us some good prosciutto di Parma and saucisson sec. But when feeding a crowd, it’s classy to be mindful that not everyone is a diehard carnivore. And besides, it’s *so* last year to limit your spread to fancy pepperoni.

That’s where the “fruicuterie” board comes in: a clever fruit charcuterie board piled high with cheese and fresh fruit instead of meat. Feel free to use any combination, but the selections below make for a particularly epic appetizer (or, if you ask us, dinner).
