Savoring the Season: Prosciutto And Nectarines With Blue Cheese

PUBLISHED ON: 06.19.2023

We try to keep dishes cool this time of year to minimize competition with the Florida heat and humidity. A few quality ingredients, and you can have something special to share with your family and friends.

Fresh summer salads with ripe stone fruits, a bit of prosciutto, and salty blue cheese with a light honey pepper drizzle can steal the show.

This salad is full of fresh flavors and is a great alternative to more traditional salads.

You can platter this salad to present beautifully when serving.

A great wine pairing would be a New Zealand Sauvignon Blanc.
