romaine salad with crispy prosciutto

prosciutto is something i see in a lot of recipes and always avoid because it's completely foreign to me.  well, last week i was feeling bold (and rich, apparently--it's super pricey) and finally got myself some prosciutto to try.  i bought a 1/4 of a pound and used it for three different recipes.  they were all delicious.  this and the next two posts are the recipes.  

from everyday food magazine.
  • 1 small ciabatta roll, torn into pieces (i used some sourdough french bread)
  • coarse salt and ground pepper
  • 3 slices prosciutto, broiled til crisp
  • 2 teaspoons red-wine vinegar
  • 1 romaine heart, chopped
  • 1/2 cup canned white beans, rinsed and drained
brush bread with olive oil and broil til crunchy.   toss it all together.  yum, yum and yum!  the vinegar is great, but i also absolutely love cardini's honey mustard.  i will never buy another honey mustard!

prosciutto can be pricey, but when a little goes a long way, it's not as bad. This sounds amazing!
