Description
This simplest and most delicious salad. Your menu will thank you!
Ingredients
- Good quality prosciutto, chopped
- Romain lettuce
- Cantaloupe cut into bite-sized cubes
- Cherry tomatoes, halved
- Chopped red onion
- Grated Parmesan cheese
- equal parts good quality Dijon mustard and Extra Virgin Olive Oil
- salt and pepper to taste
Instructions
- In a dry skillet, add in your chopped prosciutto over medium-high heat. It will only take about 5 or 6 minutes (stirring often) for your prosciutto to crisp up. Once it’s as crispy as you would like, remove from heat and set aside.
- In your bowl, assemble the rest of the salad: lettuce, cantaloupe, tomatoes, and red onion. Set aside.
- In a small bow, whisk together your EVOO and Dijon until it reaches the desired consistency. Add in a sprinkle of salt and pepper to taste.
- Add your crispy prosciutto to your salad, drizzle over your dressing and toss with a sprinkle of Parmesan cheese. Serve immediately.
Notes
This isn’t a recipe, it’s an idea! Depending on how many people you are serving depends on how much of each ingredient you need. You can even add more or less of something that you love/don’t love as well. For my salad dressing, I typically add a bit of Dijon to a bowl and whisk in my EVOO with a fork until it reaches my desired consistency. I sprinkle in a bit of salt and pepper to taste when I’m finished and pour over the salad. This is more of an idea than a specific recipe.
