Ingredients

Below, I will share everything I used to make my keto-friendly charcuterie board. There is a lot of room for creativity and changing things up. I will share some ideas for that later on in this post as well.

Cured meats

Use your favorite types of deli meats. Pepperoni, salami, and prosciutto are all keto-friendly choices.

Deli cheese

Add cheese to your platter as well. Vary the taste and textures, using soft mozzarella, stiff parmesan, and pungent swiss cheese.

Parm crisps

Fill in the gaps with some keto crackers or cheese crisps. I used parmesan crisps.

Fresh berries

For color and nutrition, I added blackberries and strawberries. Raspberries are also a low-carb fruit that would go great on your charcuterie board!

Mixed nuts

Fill in the gaps with assorted mixed nuts, like macadamia nuts, almonds, and walnuts.

Brie cheese

A wedge of soft cheese will create dimension and a difference in texture. Brie or goat cheese are fantastic options. You can even include a warm keto baked brie.

Green olives

Some green or kalamata olives are another tangy flavor variation that adds to the complexity of the meat board.

Baby pickles

Fill a small bowl with some tangy baby pickles. Do not use sweetened pickles (like bread and butter ones)!

Prosciutto-wrapped mozzarella

Finally, add a layer of prosciutto-wrapped mozzarella cheese. It is salty and melts in your mouth.

Please note: Check out the recipe card at the bottom for a full list of ingredients used to make this low-carb recipe.

Tips

• Fill in every gap. If you see any visual gaps on the charcuterie board, fill it with more mixed nuts, keto crackers, and fruit.
• Use different textures. From soft cheese to crunchy nuts, add a variety of different textures to your board.
• Choose colorful foods that show off better. Green olives and deep blackberries create enough contrast to create a beautiful display.

Instructions

Here is how to make a keto charcuterie board for your next gathering.

Fill small bowls

Place the mini pickles and green olives into two small serving bowls.

Add fresh fruit

Fruit is an important part of your keto charcuterie board. Fill two more small bowls with strawberries and blackberries.

Place meats and cheese on the board

Make vertical lines out of the meats and cheese and arrange them on the board, so there isn't any space between them.

Fill in the gaps

Fill up the cutting board with all the other ingredients for your keto charcuterie board. Leave no space uncovered.

????️ Serving suggestions

A keto charcuterie board is the best keto appetizer you can serve at a party. People are so used to seeing charcuterie boards that they won't even know it is a keto-friendly appetizer.

Serve it on a cutting board and set out small serving bowls so that everyone can fill their bowl with their favorite choices. Or, set out toothpicks and small plates next to the board.

Serve this tasty appetizer alongside other low-carb snacks like keto-friendly chocolate mousse or bang bang cauliflower!

Keto sushi rolls are another popular keto appetizer you can serve with the charcuterie board.

Don't forget to garnish with fresh herbs.

Variations

There are a lot of different ways you can make this keto charcuterie board. Please let me know if you make changes to your board in the comments.

Instead of brie (or in addition to it), add some goat cheese and blue cheese to your low-carb charcuterie board.

You can also add pork rinds or make just a cheese board filled with nuts and cheese.

Add other pickled vegetables like cauliflower or okra.

You can also layer some fresh veggies on the board, like cucumber slices, cherry tomatoes, and carrot sticks.
