Try these simple Melon Prosciutto Skewers with bocconcini, sweet cantaloupe, and Galia melon for a flavorful and delicious summer appetizer.

Serve them with balsamic glaze and a sprinkle of sea salt. A minty pesto would be lovely, too.

And if you love a good salad, skip the skewers and make a refreshing arugula platter. Top with the skewers and drizzle with a zingy olive oil vinaigrette.

Recipe Tip
If you don’t have a melon baller, cube the fruit instead.
