Melon Salad with Prosciutto






I love watermelon in the summer. I also love prosciutto, so to combine them in one recipe was amazing! 
I know that I love each salad that I make, but this one is perfect for summer! You can try this salad for a nice, refreshing lunch too.

  • 1-½ T. honey
  • 4 c. arugula
  • ¼ c. fresh mint leaves, chopped
  • 3 oz. prosciutto, very thinly sliced
  • ½ oz. Parmesan cheese, shaved
