Servings 8 People

Ingredients
  

  • 2 Cantaloupe – halved and seeded
  • 16 Fresh Basil Leaves – cleaned and folded in half
  • 16 Slices Prosciutto – split down the middle and rolled up
  • 12 oz. Fresh Goat Cheese
  • Extra Virgin Olive Oil
  • Kosher Salt
  • Fresh Ground Pepper
  • Balsamic Vinegar – for drizzling
  • 16 – 6-inch wooden skewers or decorative skewers

Instructions
 

  • With a medium-size melon baller, scoop out round balls of the melon. You should have 32 all together. Set aside.
  • Mix the olive oil, salt, and pepper in a medium mixing bowl. With the goat cheese, form into 1 inch round balls. They can be placed into the olive oil mixture and thoroughly coated.
  • When preparing the prosciutto, place a slice on a cutting board. Cut down the center, and then roll up so it will fit on the skewer.
  • Assemble the skewers. Layer the cantaloupe, prosciutto, basil leaves folded in half, goat cheese balls, and the second piece of cantaloupe until you have 16 skewers.
  • Place on a serving platter. Drizzle the balsamic over the skewers 3 to 4 times. Garnish with more basil.
