Charcuterie Skewers Ingredients

- Mini dill pickles
- Wooden skewers

Simple Steps to Making Charcuterie Kabobs
You don’t have to do it in the following order, put them together as you would like.
The easiest way is to fold each slice of meat in half, then in half again.
Slide one slice of pepperoni and one slice of salami on the stick.
Next slide a piece of cheese on top of the meat.
Continue layering meat and cheese along the middle of the kabob stick.
Top the stick with a piece of Babybel cheese and a mini pickle.
Enjoy!

Variations
Not sure if everyone likes the ingredients you are using? How about creating a meat and cheese appetizer skewers board so that everyone can make their own.
Start by creating a cheese board with all your favorite cheeses. Add your favorite meat skewer appetizers as well as some Italian dressing in a small bowl so they can dip their items in the bowls, sprinkle with some Italian seasoning. They can place everything on a little skewer and they’re good to party on.
