Hosting this season? We’ve got you covered.

Start with Mountain View queso smoked sausage, add a few cheeses and crackers, and let the compliments roll in.

Ingredients:

• 1 package Mountain View Meats Queso Sausage (pan fried, sliced and cooled)
• Crackers
• 6 oz sharp cheddar cheese, cubed
• 6 oz Colby Jack cheese, some cut into holiday shapes and some cubed
• Green olives
• Nuts (I used pecans and walnuts)
• Fresh fruit (I used pomegranate arils and orange segments)
• Sugared cranberries

Instructions:

Arrange a board or platter with the ingredients in the shape of a wreath (or Christmas tree)

Provide small plates

Enjoy!
