This Manchego Cheese Board makes a perfect small bite before or after dinner. I made the Honey Glazed Apricots on a whim, and they couldn’t have been easier to prepare. If cherries aren’t in season, apple or pear slices make an excellent substitute, adding the same touch of sweetness and freshness to the board.
