Ingredients
4 tablespoons olive oil, divided
½ cantaloupe, seeds removed, cut into ½ inch thick slices
1 pound whole grain pasta (such as penne or farfalle)
2 tablespoons lemon juice
½ teaspoon Dijon mustard
¼ teaspoon salt
⅛ teaspoon pepper
1 can chickpeas, rinsed and drained
3 ounces thinly sliced prosciutto, torn into small pieces
4 ounces fresh mozzarella, cut into bite-sized pieces
1 cup chopped fresh basil
Instructions
- Use 1 tablespoon of the olive oil to brush both sides of the cantaloupe slices, then grill on an outdoor grill or grill pan until grill marks appear (about 2-3 minutes on each side).
- Once cool, cut grilled cantaloupe into bite-sized pieces, discarding the peel.
- Cook pasta according to package directions.
- While the pasta is cooking, whisk together the remaining 3 tablespoons olive oil with the lemon juice, the Dijon, the salt, and the pepper in a small bowl.
- In a large bowl, toss the cooked, drained pasta with the lemon Dijon dressing, then add the chickpeas, prosciutto, mozzarella, grilled cantaloupe, and basil, and toss until well combined.
