Prosciutto Bread

Healthy Fact of the Day

While indulgent, this bread provides protein from prosciutto and cheese. Fresh herbs add antioxidants and flavor without calories. To make healthier, use whole wheat flour for added fiber and nutrients. Consider reducing cheese quantity and increasing herbs for flavor. Olive oil provides heart-healthy fats. For a lighter version, make smaller portions or slice thinly. The protein content makes this more satisfying than plain bread. While delicious, enjoy in moderation as part of a balanced meal. The combination of protein and complex carbohydrates provides sustained energy.

Tip of the Day

“Always let your meat rest before slicing.”

Whether you're roasting a chicken, grilling steak, or baking pork tenderloin, letting cooked meat rest for 5–10 minutes before slicing allows the juices to redistribute evenly. This simple step keeps your meat juicy and tender, ensuring every bite is flavorful and moist. Bonus: It gives you a moment to plate your sides or garnish for a perfect presentation!
