Tips for Creating an Easy Charcuterie or Snack Board

Layer in a mix of flavors, textures, and colors—think fresh veggies and fruits, dips, crackers, and crunchy plant-based protein snacks like lentils.

Use small bowls for dips and to separate ingredients (it also looks great!).

Pile ingredients in little clusters to make your platter feel abundant and inviting.

For a classic charcuterie vibe, arrange your board in sections: savory, spicy, sweet, crunchy, creamy.

FAQs about Plant-Based Snack Boards

What can I put on a vegan charcuterie or grazing board?
Try combinations of fresh veggies, fruit, plant-based dips (like hummus or guac), nuts or seeds (if no allergies), crunchy lentils (legumes are a superfood adding protein and fiber, so graze happily in abundance!), crackers (try rice crackers if sensitive to gluten), and dried fruit.

Are snack boards healthy?
Yes, they can be healthy and DELICIOUS without compromising big bold flavor! When built with whole foods like lentils, veggies, fruits, and healthy dips, they’re nutrient-dense and filling—great for energy and nutrition.

Can I make these snack boards ahead?
Absolutely. Prep the components earlier in the day and assemble just before serving for best crunch and freshness.

That’s it—a delicious, simple, and fully customizable plant-based snack or charcuterie board that’ll wow guests, feed your family, and keep you satisfied.
