These adorable snack jars aren’t just appealing for their well balanced mix of nuts, olives, cheese, meat, and fresh veggies; they’re also a smart approach to portion control. Set them out at a gathering, and watch your guests’ delight at their own individual “jarcuterie” assortment. You can vary the vegetables and nuts as you’d like. You can try roasted zucchini or eggplant cubes in place of Brussels sprouts, or pistachios instead of almonds, for example.
