Recipe Tips and Variations

I used many ingredients from Trader Joe’s but you can use any ingredients of your choice.  I highly recommend to let the salami get to room temperature then making the salami rose very last.  It’s best to practice beforehand so you know what to expect when making the salami rose.

How Do You Make a Cheap Charcuterie Board?

Overall, I was very happy with the way my board turned out!  Everyone has their own specific tastes and budgets. The great thing about these boards is that you can be as creative and selective with your ingredients as you’d like!

For cheaper options you might consider looking for fruits and vegetables that are currently in-season. Although I felt that strawberries and blueberries would add brightness to my board, you can substitute them for sliced apples or orange slices.  Just remember that apples turn brown very quickly.

One thing that I found to be a bit pricier when buying the ingredients for my platter were the meats and cheeses. Don’t let this scare you away from making your own board! Feel free to shop around for a price that works for you or take out the meat altogether. Some cheeses are also much pricier than others. Often times different types of cheddar or parmesan tend to be on the less expensive side.

In terms of crackers also, generic brand crackers can be a great substitute. Just be sure to check the nutrition facts to make sure that you’re getting the same value out of both! I hope this was helpful and I strongly encourage you to try making your own charcuterie board. I had so much fun making and eating it.

I hope you like making this gluten free charcuterie board.  It was fun and easy to make even the salami rose.  Try it today and please leave a comment with your experience.
