Ingredients
  • 2 French baguettes
  • 1 16 oz package fresh mozzarella cheese sliced
  • 1/2 cup roasted red peppers (I used half a jar) chopped into smaller pieces
  • 4 oz package sliced prociutto torn into smaller pieces
  • 1/2 cup pesto (homemade or store bought)
  • 1/4 cup toasted pine nuts
  • olive oil, kosher salt, pepper
Instructions
  1. Bake the French baguettes according to package directions, I drizzled mine with olive oil, sprinkled kosher salt over top and baked in a 400 degree oven for 6 to 7 minutes.

  2. Arrange the slices of fresh mozzarella cheese on a tray layered with pieces of roasted red pepper and prosciutto between each slice of mozzarella cheese overlapping slightly.

  3. Dollop the pesto down the center of the mozzarella salad and top with the toasted pine nuts. Drizzle olive oil over top and season with kosher salt and pepper.

  4. Slice the French baguettes after they have cooled slightly and serve to enjoy along with the prosciutto pesto mozzarella salad.
