Easy Snack Platter

Turkey, cheese, pickle platter

Once upon a time, I was busily involved in a local home school group.  I needed to make a quick, tasty, and nutritious snack for a meeting.  I decided to make a platter like the one above.  Since then, I have made several platters like this one over the years.  Now, my daughter is making them, too.


Easy ingredients and setup for platter

These are the simple ingredients:

--a block of mild cheddar cheese to cube
--a package of turkey breast slices to cut into strips to roll and pin with 
--toothpicks
--sliced kosher pickles
--knife to cut the cheese cubes and turkey breast


Hardest part of platter--the cutting of ingredients

Other considerations include vegetable and fruit platters.  Perhaps, I'll create another blog entry to reflect such platters.  They are delicious and healthy for you.  It's as simple as coming up with a multi-compartment container to house raw broccoli and carrots.  A platter could also consist of separate grapes and strawberries.


Well, thanks for reading about our easy snack platter.  I hope this informs you all of a quick set of snacks to throw together.
 
What about you, my readers? Do you like finger foods? Do you like cheese, pickles, and turkey breast?  Combining these simple ingredients into a platter is lovely.  I encourage you to get creative with quick meals.  Don't shy away from allowing your family members to eat what they want to eat, as long as they are eating from the recommended food groups, too.

May God bless you with His peace and wisdom, my beloveds.
