To assemble this board, choose a medium sized charcuterie board.

Prepare your ingredients by cutting the cheese and tomatoes into slices and pulling off your basil leaves.

Lay the ingredients on the board starting at the bottom of the tree and alternating the ingredients. Build your tree up one row at a time.

For the star, cut a star for the top of the tree from a piece of mozzarella cheese. Cut a trunk with another slice of cheese.

Optional: sprinkle with parmesan for the snow, add small caprese balls for the ground, and add a little balsamic vinegar.
