Ingredients:

Serving

3 cups (1/2-inch) cubed honeydew melon (about 1/2 medium melon)
3 cups (1/2-inch) cubed cantaloupe (about 1 medium melon)
2 tbsp thinly sliced fresh mint
1 tsp fresh lemon juice
1/4 tsp freshly ground black pepper
2 oz thinly sliced prosciutto , cut into thin strips
1/2 cup (2 oz) shaved fresh parmigiano-reggiano cheese
cracked black pepper (optional)
mint sprigs (optional)

Directions:

Combine first 5 ingredients, tossing gently. Arrange melon mixture on a serving platter. Arrange prosciutto evenly over melon mixture; sprinkle with Parmigiano-Reggiano. Garnish with cracked black pepper and fresh mint sprigs, if desired.
Wine note: I adore the sweet-salty-herbal flavor of this salad. It's so refreshing and so summery. A good wine partner should exude the same characteristics. While you could opt for an Italian pinot grigio, I find a fuller-bodied California pinot grigio works even better, especially given the full flavors of the prosciutto, mint, and Parmigiano. A great choice: Estancia Pinot Grigio 2005 (California), $12. -Karen MacNeil
