Makes

Ingredients

1 ripe mango peeled
6 oz Saputo Mozzarellissima cheese cut into eight 1-inch (2.5-cm) cubes, 175 mg
2 tsp fresh tarragon chopped, 10 ml
4 in slices Serrano ham cuthalf lengthwise
1 tbsp olive oil 15 ml
2 tsp honey 10 ml

Instructions

Preheat oven to 400 F (200 C).
Using a vegetable peeler, shave 8 thin slices of mango. Wrap one slice of mango around each cube of Mozzarellissima. Sprinkle with chopped tarragon and wrap each with a piece of Serrano ham. Brush with olive oil and place on a parchment-lined baking sheet.
Bake for 5 minutes, or until cheese starts to melt. Remove bites from the oven and drizzle with honey. Serve with cocktail toothpicks.
