Description
An easy, elegant, no-cook appetizer. Great for antipasto platters. Low calorie and protein packed.
Ingredients
- 2 Large Roasted Red Peppers
- 3 ounces, weight Sliced Prosciutto Or Ham
- ½ ounces, weight Fresh Basil Leaves
- 2 Mozzarella Sticks
Preparation
Cut open the peppers and lay them flat, with the inside facing up, on a cutting board. (If the peppers are from a jar, pat them lightly with a paper towel to remove some of the excess moisture.)
Place 1 ½ ounces of prosciutto or ham on top of each pepper, followed by ¼ ounce of basil leaves. Lay a mozzarella stick on the short end of each pepper and roll up.
Place the rolls seam side down and slice off the ends (about ¼ inch). Cut into pieces approximately ¾ inch thick and insert a toothpick through the center of each involtini to secure.
Makes about 10 involtini.
