Summer is the time to cook food on the grill. Meat, vegetables, and fruits all have their flavors enhanced with the high heat that seals in all the juices. Magic seems to happen when we grill fuit. Today’s recipe uses ripe but not soft peaches wrapped in prosciutto. Grilled prosciutto wrapped peaches are a perfect sweet and savory dish. Serve with mozzarella or burrata. Drizzle the platter with extra virgin olive oil, sprinkle a little salt and pepper, and garnish with fresh basil strips.

I have to google for prosciutto. The grilled prosciutto wrapped peaches look beautiful and delicious served with the cheese. Nice presentation.
…I’m not sure about this one.
Ohh! These sound delicious. I would never of thought of making these before. What a treat x
This would be ridiculously delicious! I make peach caprese nut adding the prosciutto takes it up a whole ‘nother level! Try it with a bit of balsamic glaze too – yum!
Oh I’m sure balsamic glaze would be fantastic
I love prosciutto Carol but never thought prosciutto with peaches. Very interesting. I’ll have to try it. Thanks.

Let me know what you think.
I’ll have to remember this for when peaches get in season here. That looks wonderful!
Not a meat eater (and especially not ham!), so no good for me, but my husband is loving our new grill!
Ooh I like the sound of these – the mix of sweet and savoury would really appeal to me. Have pinned and will have to give them a try. #MMBC
Sounds specious and something I would try x #mmbc
I couldn’t have the cheese (I’m dairy-free), but Oh! Those Grilled Prosciutto-Wrapped Peaches sound divine!
There is no reason you couldn’t leave out the cheese. Perhaps drizzle basalmic glaze on it?
I am in love with these gorgeous little peaches that you’ve wrapped in prosciutto. I will probably be dreaming about them all night long!!!!!!
do make them – grilled peaches are magic!
Oh, we grill no more… we cooking in the kitchen, because it’s easier. And of course: salad, salad and salad in the summertime – we love it with Quiche or Pasta.
Happy MosaicMonday
Looks so good!!!
I never would have thought to put these things together, but it sounds good!
These sound really yummy. I’ve had prosciutto with melon but have never thought about combining it with another fruit.
