Fruit and Cheese Board Tips

How do I store leftovers from this fruit charcuterie board?

Fresh fruit and cheese can be thrown into airtight containers or zip-top bags and stored in the refrigerator. Do keep in mind that your charcuterie board fixin's will hold better if they've been sitting out for less than an hour. If it's been longer than that, you may want to pitch them. Word of advice: You can always put out less food on your board initially, then add to it if you're worried about food waste.

Because this is a fruit charcuterie board that plays on a lot of sweet flavors, we recommend pairing it with rosé, or sparkling or white wine. For more inspiration, check out these appetizer and wine pairings. (Just make sure you're not making any of these wine-pairing mistakes.)
