Directions

  1. Place one pear half on the lower center of a cheese board with the thinner side pointing upward, leaving 2” to 3” below the pear. Inset 2 whole cloves in top of pear for the eyes.

  2. Begin arranging your cheeses, fruits, and crackers in alternating rows, radiating outward from pear, being sure to tuck each row underneath previous row. Cut a small scrap of hard or semi-hard cheese into a triangle shape to create a beak. Use small accouterments to fill in any space in your turkey’s tail.

  3. Arrange rosemary sprigs underneath turkey to create a pasture.
