This is such a fun topic and the possibilites are endless.  I love looking at all the creative ideas out there for Charcuterie and I had a good time trying to recreate some of the ideas...even if it didn't turn out as lovely as those AI generated photos that are out there making the rest of us feel imcompetent LOL.....

You can use all your favorite sandwich items for this board.  You could further decorate it with pickles, tomatoes, olives, etc....your imagination is your guide.  I kept mine simple as I was serving it at a CPL class and wasn't sure of the students likes and dislikes.  

I used half of a pear for the head, olives for the eyes and piquillo pepper for the wattle.  I did line the platter with lettuce before adding the meats and cheeses for the body.

Prosciutto went on first, around the head, followed by havarti cheese, ham, colby jack cheese and turkey.  I served the condiments and several different bread choices on the side.
