Patriotic Fruit and Cheese Platter Ingredients
The amount of each ingredient needed depends on the size of your rectangular tray.
- fresh strawberries
- fresh blueberries
- white cheddar cheese

How to Make a Patriotic Fruit and Cheese Platter
- After washing and drying your fruit, remove the stems from the strawberries. Cut cheese into equally-sized rectangular slices.
- Place your blueberries in a small white bowl and set it in the corner as a placeholder on your rectangular tray. The blueberries will eventually resemble the top left corner of the US Flag.
- Make equally sized horizontal lines of cheese and strawberries on the platter. I like to make the lines double - two lines of strawberries, two lines of cheese, etc.
- Leave the blueberries in the bowl or pour them into the remaining open space. Straighten your lines and enjoy!

Pro Tips For Making This Recipe
- The amount of each ingredient needed depends on the size of your rectangular tray.
- Use a rectangular tray with high sides to keep everything in place.
- Alternate the lines of cheese and strawberries to create a visually appealing pattern.
- Start arranging from the top of the tray to ensure straight lines.
