Ingredients
- 1 baguette sliced
- ½ pound sliced meat like prosciutto, salami or ham
- ½ pound sliced cheese like provolone
- 1 round brie cheese
- 1 small round baby bel cheese
- 1 yellow bell pepper
- ½ pound asparagus blanched
- 1 cup grapes washed (red and/or green)
- 1 cup carrots
- 1 cup blueberries
- 1 cup raspberries
- 1 cup strawberries
- 1 cup cherry tomatoes halved
- 1 cup nuts
- 1 cup sliced cucumber
- ½ cup olives green and/or black
- 1 cup dried apricots
- 6 deviled eggs
- ¼ cup whole grain mustard and/or honey
- Fresh rosemary sprigs for garnish
Instructions
Roses
- Slice the meats and/or cheeses in half.
- Lay the slices flat and slightly overlap them. Roll the sheet tightly from one end to create a central bud.
- Then, arrange additional slices around the bud, gradually forming layers to resemble rose petals. Secure the layers with toothpicks as needed.
- Finally, shape and fluff the petals to achieve a more realistic rose appearance.
Assemble
- Arrange the baguette slices in a cross shape on a large serving board.
- Under the cross, place the round of brie.
- Cut the yellow bell pepper to resemble the opening of a tomb and rays of light. Place the small round of babybel to resemble the stone rolled away from the tomb opening.
- Arrange the remaining ingredients around the cross and tomb. Fill any remaining gaps with rosemary sprigs.
- Place small bowls of whole-grain mustard or honey strategically near the board for dipping.
