Prosciutto Bites

Ingredients

• 12 slices prosciutto (thin slices)
• 1 medium pear, cut up into thin wedges
• 4-6 ounces havarti cheese
• black pepper
• 1 medium red pepper, cut into 24 thin sticks

Directions

1. 1

   You want all the ingredients (other than the prosciutto and black pepper) to be around the same size.

2. 2

   I buy the slices of havarti from the deli and cut them into four long slices. Then cut those strips in half widthwise. I then put two pieces into a roll.

3. 3

   Cut the pear into quarters and core it. Then cut each quarter in four long thin slices. I end up with a few slices leftover but I consider those treats for the cook!

4. 4

   At one end of a slice of prosciutto, place a cheese slice, a pear wedge and a pepper stick.

5. 5

   Sprinkle with pepper.

6. 6

   Roll up slices and secure with toothpick if necessary. I find that the meay sticks to itself usually well enough to not need toothpicks.

7. 7

   After they are rolled up, you can cutthem in half if you would like a smaller bite.

8. 8

   Refrigerate prior to serving and keep cool during serving.
