One thing I know for sure: antipasto platters, cheese and sausage boards, appetizer platters or whatever you want to call a glorious platter of snacks makes parties and get togethers THAT much better! Today I’m going to share with you how to make an amazing antipasto platter that your guests are going to absolutely fall in love with!

The best way to make an antipasto platterIn late December I taught the food and drinks part of a holiday workshop in Milwaukee. I shared how to make my 5 ingredient holiday punch recipe along with sugared cranberries (they make everything look so festive, don’t they?)

The most amazing holiday punch recipe

Then I shared how to make one of my favorite dip recipes from my cookbook Fast and Easy Five-Ingredient Recipes: A Cookbook for Busy People – the recipe for Hearts of Palm and Artichoke dip (page 61). It truly is amazing, worth the price of the book alone. As I was buying hearts of palm and artichoke hearts, I noticed that they were both ingredients one of my favorite companies (DeLallo) makes.

That got me thinking about some of my favorite products DeLallo makes which are olives & antipasti and cured meats & specialty cheeses. So I just had to share how to make an antipasto platter, because I truly believe they belong at every party and get together 🙂

Making the best antipasto platter

The trick to making the best antipasto platter is to have variety, and easy ways for people to pick things up with (no one wants to be touching things that have the potential to make their hands greasy) so I like to have lots of little appetizer forks (like these silver or black mini forks – they work so well) and lots of crackers for the cheese and meats. The best part is that there is no cooking required when putting together an appetizer platter!

How to make the most amazing appetizer platterDeLallo has so many amazing ingredients to make an antipasto platter with, they even have packages one can buy in their ‘gifts’ section that contain everything one needs to make a platter (link to their gifts section here). Last week I shared how to make a DIY sandwich bar and now I’m sharing how to make an antipasto platter – both are great easy spreads for guests with minimal set up required – perfect for the big game coming up!

First, I ran out of coffee beans 😳😩😢
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Then, as I was washing dishes late at night, my French press slipped through my hands and shattered 🙀😭😫
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
I just kept repeating a German phrase my mom used to say “sherben bringen Glück” which means “shards bring luck” (it’s usually applied to like porcelain- which is why plates and mugs are thrown on the ground ahead of weddings... but my mom would apply it to glass/plates/whatever broke) 
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
So...I’m going to go ahead and make some sweet cream, bust out my old coffee machine until the new French press arrives <-because apparently now I’m someone who makes French press coffee every morning! 
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
I’m going to drink my coffee and make my meal plan and shopping list for the week ahead (if you need some inspo the latest free meal plan and which has the ability to create a shooting list with the click of a button is live on the blog!

Are you team ♥️ anchovies, or team 🤢 anchov Are you team ♥️ anchovies, or team 🤢 anchovies? 
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
I used to be 🤢 
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
They sounded kinda gross if you asked me. Canned fish? No thank you. 
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Then I was part of a cookbook club (remember social activities.. 😭) and I cooked a recipe with anchovy breadcrumbs. It completely changed my perspective and thoughts on them as an ingredient. 
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Now whenever I encounter someone who is team ♥️ I rave and rave at them about miraculous anchovy breadcrumbs. 
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
They’re awesome on roasted cauliflower or on pasta 😘
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
So I gotta know? Are you team anchovies ♥️ or 🤢?!?
