I start with a large Christmas Tree shaped platter. If you do not have one you can arrange the ingredients in a tree shape on a cutting board or rectangle platter. To give mine dimension I laid my tree platter on top of a large wood board.
Start with a row of green apple slices on the bottom of the tree.
Now add a row of cubed white cheese .
Now for a red row: I used sliced pepperoni or salami.
Add another row of cubed cheese.
Top with a row of green grapes.
Add mozzarella balls in a row wherever you need to fill in space on the tree.
To the very top add a small bowl of red pomegranate seeds.
To decorate the bottom of the board, around the stem of the tree, add a variety of Christmas candies.
