Prosciutto Butter Lettuce Salad


This salad is light, savory AND sweet, and simply out of this world. It takes less than 15 minutes to throw together, and will be a dish that your family or guests will rave about, no doubt!

 

I was inspired by a recipe I saw to make my own version of this, because I love prosciutto and I love salads. I added tomatoes because I can never, evah get enough of those, and they are so good for you. The egg adds an extra dose of protein, and the light butter lettuce makes every bite float in your mouth. Try it and let us know what you think! – AK
