Tracy from The Blonde Nomads has given the old Chrissy cheese board a facelift with this cracker idea. Whether you're camping in the tent, heading away in your caravan, or even at home it's sure to be a winner. Fun, simple, and sure to impress on Christmas day, here's one to try this silly season.
Ingredients
This is a 'choose your own' adventure recipe, so you can use almost any cheese, crackers, fruit, nuts, or any other nibbly bits that you like. In this video, Tracy makes one completely of fruit with grapes, strawberries, pineapple, raspberry, and there's even a star on top – how good is that! You could also make one with your favourite cheese and crackers or satisfy that sweet tooth and make a dessert platter!
You'll also need a board to present your platter, this could be a nice serving board, a chopping board or you could even make it on the lid of your ice box in true camping style.
Method
A hot tip is to try and choose different shapes, colours, and sizes before getting creative. Chop up all your ingredients and start assembling! Begin with the trunk of the tree and build up towards the star. This is a perfect activity for the kids, or a good one for when you haven't had much time to prepare.
If you're after a super quick and easy platter that almost looks too good to eat, don't look past this cracker Chrissy platter from the Blondies. Merry Christmas all, we can't wait to see what you pull together!
