A Slice Of Summer

There are few things sweeter than biting into a slice of ripe cantaloupe. And when it comes to preparing it, the possibilities are endless. Whether your are serving the melon in a fruit salad or wrapping in prosciutto for an elegant appetizer, these simple tips can make your dishes even more delicious.
Unripe cantaloupe can be kept at room temperature for up to two days. If your cantaloupe is already ripe, its best to keep it in the refrigerator. My grandmother always told me picking the right melon is all in the way it sounds when you tap it. One other way that you can fix a slice of cantaloupe is putting a big dollop of vanilla ice cream on it. It is sooo yum!
