Charcuterie boards have the power to add some chic to every picnic, dinner party, or romantic night in. Their only downside is that they aren’t always necessarily healthy, but it’s easy to make them that way if you take one of these three steps.

Moderation and Balance

Moderation is key when it comes to snacking from charcuterie boards, but the choice of ingredients you’re using is also important. Don’t overload your board with meat and cheese, try to use low-calorie options whenever possible, and balance things out with healthy ingredients.

Going Vegan

If you still haven’t given vegan charcuterie boards a shot, now’s the time. They’re taking the world by storm as we speak and proving that charcuterie boards can look and taste amazing even if meat and dairy cheese aren’t a part of them.

Smaller Servings

Charcuterie boards were reimagined in the form of jarcuterie and snack boxes, which are a much safer option during the pandemic because they’re served individually. One of their strongest suits is that it’s easy to stay in control and avoid constant snacking even after you’ve had enough.
