Take everything you know about charcuterie and put it into a single-serve, portable jar.
Here’s our step-by-step guide to building solo charcuterie that’s tasty, fun, and easy!


Step 1:
Pick your jar! Choose a jar or small bowl that’s small enough to easily carry, but not so small that you’ll have a hard time fitting a variety of different foods in it. Fill it about two-thirds of the way full with nuts, grapes, dried fruit, or cubes of cheese.
Step 2:
Add crackers. Or breadsticks, or flatbread or pretzel sticks. Something crisp that’s a tasty base for what comes next.
Step 3:
Next come the cheese slices. A semi-hard cheese like Manchego works well.
Step 4:
Fill in the gaps. Tuck in additional cheese, dried fruit, fresh fruit, chocolate, or nuts.
Step 5:
Add 1–2 skewers per jar. Stack up meat, cheese, olives, pickles, fruit—you have nearly endless options.

Step 6:
Garnish for just a little extra flair. Try a sprig of a fresh herb like rosemary, thyme, or sage.
Step 7:
Enjoy with your beverage of choice. Individual bottles are a nice addition.
