- This recipe is a guideline, adjust the ingredients to your taste.
- I used a 15x9 inch board.
- Layer parchment paper on the board for easy clean up or if your board is not food safe. Put a dollop of butter or cheese under each corner to prevent it from moving around.
- Use high quality butter. I used Irish grass fed butter.
- Slice the toppings into bite sized pieces to make it easy to eat.
