Recipe: Appetizer: Spanish Style Ham &
Cheese Bites
Makes 6 bites
Store-bought or homemade flatbread
or pizza crust (cooked)
3 ounces thinly sliced Serrano ham
1 ¾ cups coarsely grated Manchego cheese
¼ cup finely chopped parsley
Arrange Serrano ham on top
of the flatbread or pizza crust, leaving
about a ½ inch border all around. Sprinkle
the cheese and parsley on top of the ham.
Bake in the upper third of a 350F oven for
8 to 10 minutes, or until the cheese is
melted. With a serrated knife, cut into
6 pieces.
These savory
morsels are an easy addition to any cocktail
party or casual gathering. And they match
up nicely with red, white and sparkling
wines.
