Charcuterie Christmas Wreath Appetizer

These Charcuterie Wreaths have been around for years, but I wanted to suggest that they don't have to be super sized for a big party... I made a small one for our Sunday dinner and it turned out cute! A bonus, the rosemary is from my garden:@) Now I will say, this is -a lot- of rosemary... I do suggest only using a few sprigs for looks, it was very fragrant! Another possible option? I read that typical Christmas trees (pine, spruce, etc) can be used as garnish too, always Google to be sure. Just a thought...

Use any antipasto appy type item that sounds good, 

and is small enough to fit on a toothpick or food skewer:

I used packaged sliced ham.

You could ask the deli to cut an extra thick slice and make cubes,

or use pepperoni or sausage.

Also, you could add a little sweet option...

Some skewers could have pineapple or maraschino cherries.

I opted for a spicy whole grain mustard in the middle...

Honey mustard, olives or pickles may be other options.

And they don't need to be staged,

simply laid on a platter works too:@)

Eat well this holiday season,

and have a happy day:@)
