The correct answer is: Option D. Richly abundant.

To be heaped is defined as to put or pile up objects in a single stack. This definition effectively applies in this case, since bread and meats are acceptable objects to be piled up over a table, increasing in number to the point the stack can be considered to be 'richly abundant' on stuff.
