- 2 tbsp fresh herbs parsley or dill

Method
- Board shape: Use a large wooden board or a platter.Create a color-blocked layout: a blue cluster on one side, red accents on the other, and white/dairy elements in between to evoke the flag.
- Arrange red (salami) in a linear stripe or fanned sections.
- Fill a small corner with blueberries to create a “blue field.”
- Place a bowl of dip in the center or along one edge to anchor the board.
- Surround with crackers and chips for easy grabbing.
- Add a few sprigs of parsley or dill for a fresh green pop and visually tie the theme.
Notes
Suggested dipping and serving ideas
- Dips: a bright red salsa or simple whipped feta dip to contrast with blues and whites; a ranch or garlic-herb dip works well too.
- Be mindful of portions: offer a mix of savory, crisp, and creamy options to satisfy different tastes.
- Keep crackers crisp: Pack crackers in an airtight container until service to keep them from getting soggy.
- Temperature: If you’re serving later, keep dairy items chilled and cover the board with plastic wrap until a few minutes before guests arrive to maintain freshness.
