Assembling a Chip and Dip Charcuterie Board

To assemble you chips and dip charcuterie board, you will need a medium to large charcuterie board. Since the chips tend to slide around a bunch, it’s helpful to have a board with edges to limit the mess and make it easier to pick up and move

Start by putting your dips into small bowls (and heating them if they are better warm).

Place your bowls on your charucterie board.

Next spread the chips out around the bowls – trying to spread out and break up the different colored chips.

That’s it! Serve it up and enjoy!
