Prosciutto Melon Salad

Fresh pieces of cantaloupe melon wrapped with thinly sliced Prosciutto. Served with mixed greens, grape tomatoes, sliced radishes, cucumber and tossed with our house made balsamic vinaigrette

What you will need:

  • 1/4 canteloupe
  • 3 slices of Prosciutto
  • Mixed greens
  • Grape tomatoes
  • Sliced radish
  • Cucumber
  • Balsamic vinaigrette

You can either buy balsamic vinaigrette or make your own. Basically you combine 1 part balsamic vinegar and two parts olive oil with a teaspoon of Dijon mustard and your favorite herbs to taste.

Preparation:

  • Cut melon into 3 equal parts and remove rind
  • Wrap prosciutto around each melon slice
  • Mix greens and other veggies in a large bowl
  • Toss with balsamic vinaigrette
  • On a large plate place salad in the middle and surround with prosciutto wrapped melon.
  • Salt and pepper to taste

This salad pairs very well with a light white wine such as a pinot grigio.

Enjoy!
