I have been making the kids Charcuterie Boards for lunches for weeks now, they are easy to make and the kids love them. I made our Halloween Charcuterie Board that was such a big hit that I knew we had to make a Thanksgiving Charcuterie Board too. If you are looking for the perfect way to use up those leftovers after Thanksgiving then this it is!

What do you put on a Thanksgiving Leftovers Charcuterie Board?
Bread. I used a baguette and then crisped it up but you can use crusty breads or store bought bread crisps. Soft dinner rolls would also be a great option.
Meat. Because this is a Thanksgiving leftovers board I used turkey, but you can use whatever meat you have left over from Thanksgiving.
Cheese. I used Garlic and Herb Boursin cheese and cheddar cheese but you can totally change these out for cheeses that you have left over from Thanksgiving or your favorites.
Crackers. I used the cranberry crackers from Trader Joes but you can change them up to the ones you like best.
Chips. I used trader joes leaf chips but you can change these out for ones you like or more crackers.
Vegetables. ‘I used raw carrots and celery but you can also use cauliflower, broccoli and peppers.
Thanksgiving dinner items. I used leftover roasted turkey, cranberry sauce and homemade stuffing.
Dips and sauces. For ours we used horseradish sauce and turkey gravy, but feel free to change it up to what you have on hand.
Fruit. I love pomegranate seeds or fresh cranberries but you can also use
Decorations. I like to add extra decorations to my meat and cheese boards, for this one I used tiny pumpkins, springs of sage and sprigs of rosemary.
