Hey guys! This past weekend I hosted my second ever Friendsgiving and my favorite dish/plate I put together was a charcuterie board! Being Italian, growing up this is a MUST HAVE always and when I say always I mean it! I think it is the perfect addition to your spread and it holds off your hungry guests until dinner is ready.
I decided to buy all of my ingredients at Trader Joe’s because lets face it- they are the BEST- price point wise & taste. Here’s what I used.
- TJ’s Cheese Platter – $5.49
- Gourmet Deli Selection – $5.49
- Volpi Sopresatta Salami – $6.98
- Grapes – $2.99
- Granny Smith Apple – $1.19
- Olive Tapenade – $2.98
- Eggplant Garlic Spread – $2.49
- TJ’s Party Pack Crackers – $2.98
Just $30.59! I already had apples & grapes so that brings my total down and means I spent less then $30 on this beautiful spread! The best advice I can give you to make this aesthetically pleasing is different colors & shapes which you can achieve easily with the fruits & cheese.

There you have it babes! Simple, Affordable & a Statement all under $35.
XO,
