It is no secret that I’m a huge fan of Boursin® cheese.
I buy it all the time. I’ve also used it in recipes, but I definitely prefer enjoying its wonderful flavor and creamy texture over some good quality crackers.
My desire today is to show you how to prepare your own holiday appetizer platter.
Yes, I know this isn’t really a recipe and everyone could throw in some fruit, crackers, nuts and cheese and call it a platter. I’d like to give you some ideas and share my love for Boursin® cheese.
On my recent trip to Walmart, I got some Boursin® Shallot & Chive cheese from the cheese section. There is also another awesome flavor (my second favorite) – Garlic And Fine Herb. You can also find it in these flavors :
- Boursin® Red Chili Pepper
- Boursin® Cranberry & Spice
- Boursin® Basic & Chive
- Boursin® Cracked Black Pepper
- Boursin® Cranberry & Apple
My intentions were to use it for the holidays, but I also made a Saturday night appetizer platter last Saturday, just to practice before the holidays and show you my idea.
Boursin® is a creamy, crumbly cheese that your guests will definitely enjoy.
Boursin® is really made to wow.
Boursin® Shallot & Chive Cheese is perfect for a holiday platter. This is just the way I love my holiday platters. And I enjoy making these!
No matter if we host a party at home, of go to a party with family or friends, I would always make a platter like this.
By choosing a nice plate/platter/board, you can easily add all of your ingredients and wrap to cover them, so it is ready for your party. And it will look beautiful!
I made some homemade marinated mushrooms, loaded with flavors and always look good on a holiday platter.
I also used some nuts (pistachios), high end mini crackers, pomegranate, tangerines and grapes. Feel free to add more components to the platter, if you’d like.
The use of Boursin® Shallot And Chive is a must!

I never think to buy Boursin to eat like this, Mira. In the past I’ve bought it mostly for using in sauces or for stuffing chicken.
Great idea to make up a yummy platter like this!
thanks Helen! It is perfect for cooking, I agree!
Boursin cheese is one of my favorites, too! And I love cheese platters, so this sounds perfect. I love this tutorial and the ingredients that you served to go along with it. What a great idea for the holidays, Mira! Sounds perfect!
Thanks Gayle!
I’ve never tried Boursin and I’m wondering why??? The flavors sound delicious, and I love all the ingredients you’ve paired it with. I wouldn’t stray far from the appetizer table with this around!
Thanks Marcie! Hope you like it 🙂
Yum! I love Boursin and actually just bought this kind last week! The garlic and herb is my go-to but the chive and shallot was delicious, too. Great job with the holiday platter – looks beautiful.
Love Boursin! It is so delicious 🙂
