How to make a Trader Joe's Fall Charcuterie Board

Y’all know I love a good cheese board. Last year I had so much fun putting together a Trader Joe’s Fall Snack Board, I decided to do another rendition with all the fun fall stuff I found on my most recent trip. TBH, shopping at Trader Joe’s is just as, if not more, exciting for me as shopping for clothes. Maybe even more. I find it therapeutic. So after a particularly long and stressful week, I headed to TJ’s with the mission of checking out all the fun fall stuff.

I picked up a few of my favorite things from last year, like the Fig and Olive Crackers. They’re a good mix of savory and sweet and are very sturdy, so good for spreading a creamy cheese. The Autumn Chimay is another repeat from last year, it’s a nice mild cheese that pairs well with apples. The Cornbread Crackers were a new try for me and I highly recommend. They actually taste like cornbread, but are a bit crumbly. They’re also delicious as a salad crouton. The Autumn Leaves Chips are super cute, but do just taste like regular tortilla chips, fyi. I actually don’t go crazy for pumpkin spice flavored things, so was surprised by how much I like the Pumpkin Spice Batons. The Apple Cider Jam was new for me too, it was really nice paired with the cheese and salami together!
