Use a large rectangular platter or wooden cutting board.

Place your pretzels vertically at the bottom of the platter/board to create the trunk of the tree.

Then lay a row of fresh rosemary horizontally across the bottom of the board to establish the base of your tree.

After that, just begin placing your ingredients in thin, shorter rows to create a triangle.

Make sure as you are assembling your tree to plan it out using a mix of colors!

Continue by laying the pepperoni slices

Then add a mixture of the pepper jack and Colby cheeses

Next, a row of black olives

Then a row of green grapes.

Next, lay another row of rosemary to create branches throughout the tree.

Then, add your salami and mozzarella balls. This is important because you want to fold your salmi in half and use the mozzarella balls to prop the slices up.

Add another row of rosemary, then place your cheddar cheese and green olives.

Continue adding rows of rosemary throughout the assembly to create the look of tree branches.

Lastly, add your tomatoes and red grapes

Use a star-shaped cookie cutter (or a paring knife) to cut out a star from a slice of Colby cheese

Place the star on top and add little springs of rosemary throughout and you're all set!

Serve with club crackers, pretzels, or bread chips!
