There are not many things I love more than cheese. Sure I love my family, my friends, my pets and my boyfriend. But then in a very close fifth place, there’s cheese.

These little bites of joy really help with that summertime happiness! There’s something about melon and prosciutto that just makes my taste buds smile. But I decided to take one of my favorite, refreshing appetizers and step it up a notch by adding arugula and honey to the mix.
