Week 10!!!! Prune!!!

Baby is the size of a prune this week!!!

I haven't ever been a huge fan of prunes, but I had this appetizer once and thought it was delicious.  It is the perfect combination of sweet and salty!

Oven Roasted Prunes Wrapped in Pancetta

Ingredients:
24 pitted prunes
3 oz soft blue cheese (I recommend asking for a milder blue cheese)
3 oz thinly sliced pancetta, cut into 1 1/2 inch lengths

Instructions:
-Preheat broiler.  Stuff each prune with about 1/2 tsp cheese.  Wrap with a piece of pancetta and fasten with a toothpick.
-Place the prunes on a baking sheet and broil until pancetta is lightly crispy, turning once, about 5 minutes into it.  If they stay under the broiler too long the cheese will melt and ooze out.
