Prosciutto, Melon, and Mozzarella

Ingredients

3/4 lb Italian Prosciutto di Parma
1 cantaloupe or honeydew melon, or 1/2 of each
1 8 oz container of fresh cherry-size mozzarella cheese, each cheese ball cut in half (optional)
Party toothpicks or bamboo skewers
Melon Baller

Method

Cut the melon in half and remove the seeds. Using a melon baller, scoop up the melon into small balls. Take a small strip of prosciutto and wrap it around a melon ball. Pierce through with a toothpick and add a piece of mozzarella if desired. Repeat for all melon balls. Arrange on a platter.

Makes about 30 pieces.
