# [Chop It Like It's Hot: Fun Food Boards for the Holiday Weekends](https://blog.lgssales.com/fun-food-boards-for-the-holiday-weekends)

With the unofficial start to summer quickly approaching, it’s time to start breaking out the platters and chopping boards! Nothing quite makes a party like a big pile of food that can easily be “picked” by the guests (or yourself, multiple times…).

Here are a few of our favorite ways to enjoy a charcuterie board:

## The Classic

The traditional party plate - meat, cheese and fruit with bread on the side. You can never go wrong with this classic! Our Darling Clementines® make the perfect cheese topper or meat complement with each round of grazing…

## The Early Riser

Bright, sunny mornings call for a bright, sunny breakfast! Pancakes, sizzling bacon, eggs and a zesty burst of Vitamin C, can you say yummmmmm? A board filled with all of these breakfast essentials is going to make even the latest sleeper wake up, unless your plate beats ‘em to it...

## The Fruity Fresh

This board is one in a *melon*. These hot summer days call for a cooldown that only fresh, chopped fruit can bring. Add in all of your favorite fruits for brighter colors and bigger flavors. Remember, the more Darlings, the better!

## The Sweet Treat

Skip the overcrowded fondue restaurants and have your own dipping party at home! Melted chocolate over pretzels, Darling Clementines®, or marshmallows is going to go fast - trust us. Have your fondue forks ready!
