Your best friend this holiday season? The no bake, fast and easy appetizer - that doubles as an edible centerpiece. Allow us to introduce: the crostini bar.
We've partnered with Day Owl Rosé to share our top trends and tips for all your Friendsgiving fun. Click here to check out all our happy holiday tricks.
Everyone is hungry for a great tasting appetizer that's no fuss. And this, folks, is it.
Create a stunning display of your favorite cheeses, salamis, produce and toasts in 1, 2, 3. It's as easy as tasting a cutting board or platter, and filling it with trios of bites.
Step 1 - Place three cheeses on board, spacing them out to fill board.
Step 2 - Add three charcuterie like salami, prosciutto, dried chorizo in pretty "piles".
Step 3 - Layer in colorful November fruit like blackberries, sliced figs and peaches. I love the pop of color vegetables give as well: halved heirloom cherry tomato, baby zucchini, olives.
What pairs perfectly with crostini? Well, ahem, with everything? Our favorite California Day Owl Rosé, bien sur.
Fresh burrata, marinated in olive oil, red pepper and parsley makes a gorgeous bite on the crostini board, non?
Guests can schmear their toasts, layer toppings, and create gourmet bites as they celebrate.
Pro tip: drizzle honey ontop cheese: baby brie, stilton and more.

This is such a gorgeous setup — love the self-serve crostini concept! I'm definitely stealing this for our next game night. We've been doing Friendsgiving get-togethers with a twist: everyone brings a dish, and we play through indie visual novels together on the big screen. Recently got into The Freak Circus — it's a dark carnival-themed VN where your choices totally change the story, perfect for group debates on "what would YOU pick?" Paired with a good rosé and a crostini bar like this? Chef's kiss. Guide for anyone curious: thefreakcircusguide.org — enjoy!
The 'trios of bites' with three cheeses and three charcuterie made me think of a color match puzzle, arranging hues just like balancing flavors. I was sipping coffee and imagined setting up this crostini bar for friends - wouldn't that be a fun, tasty way to mix and match?
