Italian-inspired snack board

Total time: 18 min • Prep: 15 min • Cook: 3 min • Serves: 4 • Difficulty: Easy

Bring people together for a fun snack or meal that's made up of a tasty assortment of finger foods. Buttery Castelvetrano olives and sweet red peppers make for a milder take on the typical olive-anchovy tapenade. It’s delicious smeared onto toasted baguette, or as a dip for crisp baby zucchini. Use regular zucchini, cut into sticks, if you can’t find the tiny baby version.

A rectangular wooden platter topped with zucchini spears, mozzarella balls, grape tomatoes, crostini, prosciutto-wrapped melon, and small bowls of almonds, marinated artichokes, and a pepper-olive tapenade.
