Red White and Blue Snack Board
This simple Red White and Blue Snack Board is the perfect food for your next patriotic holiday get together!
Need a great snack tray for your next patriotic holiday celebration? This patriotic sweets board is perfect for celebrating Memorial Day, 4th of July, Labor Day, Veteran’s Day, or any summer get together with friends.
A great thing about serving trays or boards is that you can easily customize the size for your crowd. If you’re just having a few people a regular platter will work fine. For a larger guest list you can either use a large charcuterie board or prepare several smaller trays scattered around for easy access.
The American flag inspired this arrangement. I placed the bowl of dip where the stars would be and alternated red, white, and blue sweets for the stripes. Since I was serving a dip I needed to specifically include foods that taste good with the dip, so I chose strawberries, mini vanilla wafers, blueberries, and teddy grahams.
This arrangement works best on a rectangular tray or board. Here are some that would work nicely.

Small White Ramekins
If you do a lot of entertaining, you need a set of small white ramekins. I use these on charcuterie boards and snack trays to hold dips, nuts, chocolates, grapes, just about anything. I especially love these because they come with lids to conveniently store any leftovers.
