Default Chicken Salad, Fruity

For those who like melon with prosciutto (a combination > I keep trying but

I like it only if the melon is perfectly ripe and drippingly juicy. I also
prefer green colored melon (honeydew is what I recall from there) to the
orange ones.
What I like better is prosciutto with figs, also really ripe so they don't
have that cucumber whiff.

My best, best of prosciutto is very un-Italian. A slice of good Pugliese
bread smeared with sweet butter and overlaid with a single slice of
prosciutto. That's my best way with smoked Scottish salmon, too.

Now I must return to my carb-free crap lunch.
