5 St. Patrick's Day Charcuterie Boards Better Than a Pot of Gold

Perfect for an at-home celebration!

Published on March 16, 2021

St. Patrick's Day is this Wednesday and since we won't be heading to parades or crowded bars this year, we'll have to find new ways to celebrate. If you're looking for fun ways to celebrate St. Patrick's Day at home, consider making a festive green charcuterie board for your family.

We love a festive holiday cheese board, and with so many tasty green veggies a St. Paddy's Day board is a no-brainer. Plus, the foodie community is already on board with the trend too: There are currently 200 posts tagged #stpatricksdaycharcuterie on Instagram, and they're all mouth-wateringly beautiful.

To make your own, grab a cheese board, fill it with all your favorite snacks, and make your own green beer or family-friendly green drinks to go with the snack spread. We've rounded up a few of our favorite creations to help you get started.

Shamrock Shapes

We're swooning over this festive shamrock-inspired spread by Meg Quinn (Instagram @ainttooproudtomeg). To recreate the look, use a shamrock cookie cutter ($8 for a six-pack in different sizes, Amazon) to cut out the top of a wheel of brie and arrange your favorite fruits, veggies, and crackers around it.

Irish-Inspired

Jennifer Dunham (Instagram @theboardandthebabe) created this delicious veggie board inspired by the orange, green, and white stripes on the Irish flag. We're loving the way she arranged orange and green fruits and vegetables around small dishes of dips and white cheeses atop a round serving board ($20, Amazon).

This gorgeous board by Kylies Charcuterie Creations (Instagram @charcuteriebykylie) is the ultimate snack spread. She transformed a traditional meat and cheese board into a tasty St. Patrick's Day treat by adding plenty of green veggies, herbs, and garnishes.
