Ingredients Equipment Method

Ingredients
  

  • 1 pint strawberries cleaned and diced
  • 6 oz raspberries
  • 1 pint fresh blueberries
  • 16 oz mozzarella pearls
  • 35 slices white cheese Asiago, white cheddar, or white American
  • 2 cups sliced pepperoni
  • 2 cups pita crackers
  • 1 cup roasted red peppers drained

Equipment

  • Large wooden cutting board or tray (rectangle preferred)
  • Small bowl for blueberries
  • Cheese knife
  • Small tongs or toothpicks (optional for serving)

Method
 

Start with the Blue “Stars” Section:
  1. Place your small bowl in the top-left corner of the board. Fill it with blueberries. Then, sprinkle mozzarella pearls over the top so it resembles stars on a blue field.
Lay Out the Red and White “Stripes”:
  1. Create even horizontal rows across the board, alternating red and white ingredients to form flag stripes. Start with strawberries at the top, followed by a white cheese row, then raspberries, another cheese row, then pepperoni, and so on.
Fill In with Crackers and Extras:
  1. Tuck in pita crackers in open spots, or create a row with them toward the bottom. Add the roasted red peppers in a line or clustered where they fit best.
Adjust for Balance:
  1. Stand back and take a look. Fill in any gaps with extra cheese cubes or fruit to keep things full and balanced.
