Prosciutto and Butter Sandwich with Dates, Cheddar and Arugula
This Prosciutto and Butter Sandwich with Dates, Cheddar and Arugula is what happens when a fancy little French picnic sandwich meets girl lunch in the best possible way. It’s salty, sweet, peppery, buttery, crunchy, and honestly tastes like something you’d spend way too much money on at a tiny café with mismatched plates and sparkling water.
