Step 1

Prepare basil drizzle. Place olive oil, basil, garlic powder and salt in the blender. Blend until smooth.

Step 2

Cut French bread into thin slices. Top each with about 1/3 slice of prosciutto.

Step 3

Top the prosciutto with a half or two halves of a marinated Ciliegine ball (depending on bread size) or plain fresh mozzarella, cut to size, and sprinkled with olive oil and thyme.

Step 4

Broil (watching carefully) until cheese is melted and bread is slightly toasted.

Step 5

Drizzle with the basil olive oil mixture and serve.
