Open-Faced Prosciutto & Jam Sandwiches with Ricotta & Arugula
The only thing better than a really great sandwich is one that takes just minutes to prepare! All you have to do is layer on the toppings and dig in. This Really Great Sandwich has crusty sourdough bread, sweet peach jam, salty prosciutto, creamy fresh ricotta, and lemon-kissed arugula for a light-but-filling lunch idea in just 10 minutes. This open-faced beauty may look fancy enough for a knife and fork, but it’s a sandwich! So get in there with your hands (maybe with your pinkies up?).
