PROSCIUTTO AND MELON (PROSCIUTTO Y MELONI)



Prosciutto and Melon (Prosciutto Y Meloni) image

Another way-too-simple-to-post recipe, but this is a frequent appetizer in our house and so I'm putting it here so I can add it to menus, shopping lists etc. I know that lots of others tend to make salads of this combination, but I prefer just a wedge of fruit with prosciutto. The combination of sweet and salty is unbeatable!
