We do that most days! Fruit, cheese, smoked meats, crisp bread, olives, peppers etc are in our fridge and pantry all the time. We graze most of the day more so in the summer. We usually have it all out by noon. No one feels like cooking no big deal. Making tuna /chicken salad is about all the preparing meals we do unless my husbands wants to grill. The grands love it and have started to eat more variety of foods if on a big board. LOL
