White Bean Flatbreads with Prosciutto and Fontina Cheese

Here is a 7 minute snack that might just fill the bill:

4 pocketless pitas (or Naan bread*)
2 T. EVOO, plus more for drizzling
1 15 oz. can cannellini beans, drained and rinsed
1 t. crushed red pepper
1 t. fresh rosemary, chopped
2 oz. chopped sliced prosciutto (this is pricey, so you could use thinly sliced salami or another cured meat*)
1/4 cup chopped salted roasted almonds
6 oz. imported Fontina cheese, shredded (1 &1/2 cups)

Preheat a large oven proof skillet, and preheat the broiler. Position a rack 6" from the heat. Brush the pitas on both sides with the 2 T. of oil. Cook in the skillet over high heat until bowned., 3 mins. In a bowl, mash the beans with the red pepper, rosemary, and prosciutto; spread on the pitas. Top with the almonds and cheese, and transfer the skillet to the broiler. Broil for 2 mins. until cheese is melted and the pitas are golden. Drizzle with oil, cut into wedges and serve with a variety of olives. :)

We have two more days of sun predicted for here, so get out there and savor the feeling of warmth on your face (after applying sunblock, of course)!!

Love,
