Recipe: A Vegan Holiday Snack Board Built for Grazing

From poosh.com

When it comes to holiday hosting, the best spreads are the ones that invite people to linger, and this vegan holiday snack board from @saltntahini does exactly that. Designed for grazing, it’s easy to assemble, endlessly adaptable, and full of contrast. Creamy meets crunchy, sweet meets briny, and fresh meets preserved, all in one effortless spread inspired by Seiran’s thoughtful, plant-forward approach to food.

It’s the kind of board you can put out early, replenish as the night goes on, and enjoy without hovering as the host. Festive without feeling heavy, it shows that holiday food doesn’t need to be complicated to feel special.
