• Roasted tomatoes will keep in the refrigerator for up to one week.
• Don't think you should only serve this on a platter. A large, rustic wood cutting board is a casual and eye-catching way to present your menu items.
• The ingredients for this grazing board are simply suggestions (and ones I love). Have fun and make it your own by adding your favorite items.
• This platter is made to be served casual family style and can be left at room temperature for an hour or two (if it lasts that long!).

Grazing Board Styling Tips

• Start with your stars (roasted tomatoes) and bigger items and build around them.
• Choose a theme (Italian) or color profile (colors like green, white, and red).
• Use different shapes and sizes. Cut up some cheeses while leaving some in whole rounds or wedges. Fold or roll meats, slice up veggies, and serve little tomatoes right on the vine.
• Springs of basil are great at filling in empty spaces, adding color, and are delicious paired with the roasted tomatoes, crostini, and mozzarella.
• Use little bowls or pieces of parchment for wet or greasy items.
• Think out of the box by adding crunchy parmesan crisps, marinated beans, fresh herbs, and loads of sweet and spicy peppers to complement the main ingredients.
