This grazing board is paleo and Whole30-compliant, the perfect way to start date night or a gathering with friends and family on a round! Super customizable and straight-up fun, too.
What Makes This So Good
- I love, love, love grazing boards. Love them. They’re just so much fun to put together! All of your favorite foods, spread out in a culinary smorgasbord that pretty much equates to a grown-up Lunchable? Sign me up.
- The fact that they’re SO customizable might just be my favorite thing about them. I’ve done keto versions, bagel versions, and for our holiday party I did a whole sweet & savory spread with dips and chocolates and various meats and cheeses. Of course, for a Whole30 grazing board, you’ll have to skip the cheeses and chocolates, but there’s still a TON of delicious foods you can include!
- Just like the ingredients are customizable, the amount of food you incorporate is customizable, too. Grazing boards can be small, individual-sized plates for a solo snack night; larger platters for an intimate gathering; or you can go BIG and create a whole grazing table to feed a large group for a bridal shower or birthday party. Cover a table with butcher paper, add cute little signs or notes to identify each food, et voilà !
Key Ingredients
Making a grazing board Whole30-compliant is honestly super easy. Just think of it like a much larger version of the meal template! You’ll want to include proteins, veggies, fruits, nuts and/or seeds, and plated fats. Then when you’re building your plate, you can have a little of everything!
Chef’s Tips
- Everything listed in the ingredients below are just suggestions – feel free to make any substitutions or adjustments you like! You don’t have to include this many components. If you have a large board, you can double up ingredients as needed to fill out the space.
- For more visual texture, roll, fold, and stack the sliced meat, or form some into roses. Also be sure to use a variety of sizes, shapes, and colors on your board. I like to use a few sizes of bowls and ramekins for the dips and sauces, too, so the board feels a little less uniform.
- Split things up however you need to! If you’re making a really large grazing board (or a grazing table!) then try to include some of each ingredient on both ends so everyone can reach.
