Substitutions & Variations
Meats and Cheeses. I did not use meat in mine, but change up the meats, cheeses, vegetables and fruits to suit your tastes. The choices are nearly endless on what you would like to add.
Candy Board. One of the fun ways to change this up is to make a board with your favorite Easter Candy. This is an easy way to share Easter sweet treats. Add Marshmallow peeps, jelly beans and chocolate bunnies. But hide the board until after the Easter meal so appetites don't get spoiled.
Appetizer Dip. Change up the dip to a Beau Monde dip, Vegetable Cream Cheese dip or a Simple Hummus Dip.
Hard Boiled eggs. These can easily be added to to the board and add a festive Easter touch.
Dried Herbs - You can use dried Dill and Parsley in a pinch.
Storage

- Arrange the board by placing the dip in the center and filling in with the crackers, veggies and cheeses based on the size and shape of your board.
