Sometimes when you feel like eating a huge crostini with delicious cheese and charcuterie (maybe like this one we made not too long ago) you have to be a good person with good self control and maybe not eat the bread because you know swimsuit season is coming up or whatever. Or maybe you’re just watching your carbs so you can ice cream every night. I get it. Either way we made these Prosciutto Topped Cucumber Crostini for you, and they are delicious.

I made these for new years eve using goat cheese and they were a hit. What a pretty presentation too!
What a great idea. It’s along the lines of making avocado toast with sweet potato slices. How much more prosciutto can I put away if it’s on top of a cucumber and not on bread?
