Ingredients:
- 5-6 slices prosciutto, thinly-sliced
- 5 ounces mesclun mix (fresh baby lettuces and greens)
- goat cheese (or substitute grated Pecorino Romano, Grana Padano, Parmesan or Feta cheese)
- 6 ounces dried apricots, cut to 1/4-inch pieces
- Olive oil
- Vino Cotto di Montillo
- Freshly-ground black pepper
Directions:
- Cut a prosciutto slice in half lengthwise, then cut into thirds crosswise (6 sections per slice). Tightly roll up each section, then cut it in half. Repeat.
- Onto each salad plate, add a handful of lettuce, a few morsels of goat cheese, apricot pieces, and prosciutto rolls.
- To serve, drizzle with olive oil and vino cotto, then top with black pepper.
The larger the grapes, the better! If you can find big, round, seedless globe grapes, those work perfectly.
