We are not crazy about basil. Could you substitute spinach or.......?

Just a comment for Lmoomaw15 ... I've heard of substituting air dried beef for prosciutto. There is a brand called Carson's that might work well for you.

My family loved this recipe and it was SO easy to prepare. I was making it at the last minute and had to use items on hand, so I substituted thin deli ham for prosciutto and swiss cheese for provolone. When I make it again (which I definitely will), I'll use provolone, but the swiss worked just fine.

Fresh sage leaves are great in lieu of the basil and a thin slice of hard salami works well for the prosciutto.

I would like to try this. Can you suggest a substitute (non-pork) for the prosciutto???

This sounds delicious and very easy. I'd like to know how to prepare the veggie side dish I can see in the picture. Does anyone have an idea? Thanks!
