We admit, this is not really a recipe, but prosciutto-wrapped melon chunks are easy to make, really pretty and everyone loves them, so we thought they were an appetizer worth documenting. For presentation, we like to top each piece with a seedless grape and skewer them with a pick.

Hi Barb,
Melon and prosciutto is a favorite of mine – I love the contrasting salty and sweet.
