Melon and Prosciutto Bites

These bites are the perfect balance of salty, sweet, and slightly spicy. Along with a cucumber basil drizzle they make the perfect appetizer for a party. Make a bunch…they’ll go quick!

Ingredients:

For this recipe there really are no amounts. It all depends on how many you want to make. But the ingredients are as follows:

• Cantaloupe or melon cut into large cubes
• Prosciutto cut to fit on top of melon cubes
• Fresh basil, diced
• The Olive Tap’s Basil Fused Olive Oil
• The Olive Tap’s Cucumber Melon Riserva Balsamic Vinegar
• The Olive Tap’s Sea Salt (I like the bit of spice this adds, but feel free to use any sea salt)

Directions:

1. Lay a piece of the prosciutto over the melon cube and stick a toothpick through to bottom. Arrange them all on a platter of your choice. Once they are all done combine the Basil Fused Olive Oil, and Cucumber Melon Riserva Balsamic Vinegar in a small bowl and whisk to combine.
   I made a dozen and used 1 T. of each the oil and vinegar.
2. Drizzle the dressing over prosciutto melon bites, sprinkle with Sea Salt, and sprinkle on diced basil. Serve immediately.
