Ingredients
Base
- 1 cucumber, sliced
Toppings
- 1 cup cheese cubes (cheddar, mozzarella, or your favorite cheese)
- ½ cup olives (black or green)
- 6 slices salami or ham, folded
Garnish
- Fresh rosemary sprigs
- Toothpicks
Instructions
- Prepare the cucumber base: Arrange the cucumber slices in an overlapping circle on a large serving platter to form a wreath shape, creating a fresh and colorful foundation for the appetizer.
- Assemble the skewers: Thread the cheese cubes, olives, and folded slices of salami or ham onto toothpicks to create bite-sized savory treats.
- Decorate the wreath: Evenly space the assembled toothpicks over the cucumber base, ensuring a balanced and appealing presentation.
- Add finishing touches: Place fresh rosemary sprigs around and on top of the wreath to add a fragrant, festive touch that resembles holiday greenery.
Notes
- Add cherry tomatoes for more vibrant color and variety.
- This wreath style works wonderfully on charcuterie boards alongside crackers, nuts, and spreads.
