Prosciutto Stuzzichini
I have been so inspired lately to cook that I can hardly keep up with what all I’ve made and photographed :) I nearly forgot about these adorable Prosciutto Stuzzichini because they are quite simple with only a few ingredients and not really any magnificent preparation to share either. At first I wasn’t sure if their simplicity even merited a blog post but then I got to thinking that some of the best recipes are the ones that are the simplest! (and include prosciutto)
These little beauties are delectable and will surely be a favorite on your next appetizer table because I know I’m not the only one who has a weakness for prosciutto. It is always the first to go!
Stuzzichini (singular stuzzichino) is the Italian word for a small antipasto or appetizer. Little bites that can be eaten during aperitivo or happy hour :) Doesn’t that sound nice?!
