Steps:

• Cut the baguettes into thirds and then down the middle. I buy baguettes par baked then finish them off at home so they're nice and warm, soft and crisp.
• Brush both sides of the sandwich bread with good olive oil.
• Lay out about 3 slices of prosciutto on bottom side of each sandwich. (or however much meat you'd like).
• Make sure you squeeze out the excess water from the mozzarella balls with a paper towel. Place 3-4 slices of sliced mozzarella on top of the prosciutto.
• Cover the tops of the mozzarella with basil leaves, and place tops of the sandwich bread.
• YUM!

PROSCIUTTO, CANTALOUPE AND BUTTER SANDWICH WITH BASIL DRIZZLE

Steps:

• For the basil drizzle: Combine the basil, parsley, salt, red pepper flakes, garlic, lemon juice and chile in a mini food processor and pulse to make a chunky paste. Add the olive oil and process until smooth and bright green.
• For the prosciutto, cantaloupe and butter sandwich: Spread the butter on both cut sides of the baguette. Drizzle the bottom piece with a tablespoon or so of the basil drizzle. Layer the prosciutto and cantaloupe on the bottom piece of the baguette, ruffling and folding the prosciutto as you go. Drizzle a tablespoon of the basil drizzle over the top. Drizzle the cut side of the top piece with 1/4 cup or so of the basil drizzle. Place the top piece of baguette on the prosciutto and cantaloupe and cut into 2 sandwiches using a serrated knife. Serve the extra basil drizzle on the side or reserve for another use.
