How to Assemble the Ultimate Summer Burger Board with Kentucky Cattlemen's Beef
I am so excited to partner with Kentucky Cattlemen’s Beef to bring you the Ultimate Summer Burger Board just in time for your summer cookouts and Memorial Day Weekend festivities! Kentucky Cattlemen’s fresh, natural (no artificial ingredients, minimally processed) beef is sourced from Kentucky farm families who share a commitment to animal care and the environment. When you buy Kentucky Cattlemen’s Ground Beef you can feel confident in purchasing a great tasting product while supporting local Kentucky (which I love!). You can truly taste the difference in the quality of this beef, so I was thrilled to feature it on this board.
The Ultimate Kentucky Derby Cheeseboard!
I can’t believe I have never thought to make a Kentucky Derby Cheeseboard before, but it’s going to be hard to top! Being born and raised in Kentucky, I wanted to put together a board that showcases all things bluegrass, southern, and delicious! There is no where better to live and eat than Kentucky, and if you don’t believe that, just try this board! This board has it all from hot brown dip to mint julep salsa, bourbon balls to country ham biscuits, benedictine to mini derby pies, and more! I also included lots of different veggies, crackers, and bread options for tons of different dipping and snacking combinations! As always you can totally customize this board, and any of my boards, to fit your guest list and budget and all suggested ingredients can be edited and swapped out easily!
Easy Baked Hot Brown Dip
Hot Browns are a staple for any derby party or dinner, but so difficult to make and keep fresh when you have a lot of guests! This hot brown dip is the perfect way to enjoy the flavors of this classic Kentucky staple without all the work! You can serve this cold, or baked (like below- highly recommend), and it’s delicious with any kind of toasted bread, pretzels, crackers, veggies, or chips! Find all the ingredients and instructions below!
Mint Julep Fruit Salsa
This bright, fresh, and flavorful fruit salsa is the perfect addition to your Kentucky derby party spread! I have to admit I’ve always kind of scoffed at the idea of fruit salsa, but this recipe definitely changed my mind! The addition of the bourbon and mint gives this such a great depth of flavor and I was literally just eating it with a spoon! Serve with some sweeter crackers or chips (cinnamon pita or tortilla chips are ideal) or eat all alone!
Easter Cheeseboard
If you’ve been following me for any length of time, you know I absolutely love putting together cheeseboards for any occasion and any holiday! Of course, I also had to put one together for Easter and loved the fun spring colors and foods I was able to incorporate into this one. If you are hosting an Easter gathering for your family or friends, this is a perfect way to serve a variety of snacks and is fairly easy to assemble too. Check out the pictures, ingredient list, and directions below!
Easy Spring Rainbow Snack Mix for St. Patrick's Day

Like my other snack mixes, this one is a delicious sweet and salty mix perfect for the whole family or a party!

Feel free to customize and substitute in what you have on hand or can find! If you give this one a try, be sure to let me know!
Delicious + Decadent Hot Chocolate Board
To celebrate our 3rd annual hot chocolate week at the Amsden, I had to make another hot chocolate board for y’all! This is such a perfect winter treat full of toppings and treats to pair with your hot chocolate. I got everything for this board from Trader Joe’s and Kroger. This board can serve 8-10 people or more depending on how many toppings everyone wants! You can customize this too with a variety of different desserts and toppings- you definitely do not have to use everything listed or the exact same items either. You can find a list of all the ingredients and instructions for putting this together below!
