Place hummus and cheeses on large board or platter. Fill in empty spaces with pineapple, watermelon, cucumbers, crackers and snacks. Add lime wedges and a small bowl of chili-lime seasoning for more color and flavor. This Fun in the Sun Board can be tailored to fit any number of servings, depending on the size of your gathering. Use a guideline of 2 Tbsp. hummus and 1 oz. EACH cheese, and crackers or snacks per serving. For a well-balanced board, fill in empty spaces with fresh fruit. For the 10 servings shown here, figure on purchasing a 10-oz. container of hummus and 10 oz. of cheese (total weight of both cheeses). Be sure to have plenty of crackers, snacks, fruit and cucumbers on hand.
Substitute: Prepare using your favorite fresh fruits. You should plan on having a total of 4 cups cut-up fruit on hand to arrange on the board.
Note: The chili-lime seasoning is the perfect flavor complement to the pineapple.
