YUMM!!! Rosemary Olive oil Brushed Bruschetta with Marscapone cheese Prosciutto and Orange Marmalade

Wondering what the hell to do with the rest of that Marmalade from the BBQ?...When I was a child my mum used to make little tea sandwiches for absolutely no reason or occasion (my mother is not British so I have no idea why...lol)one of my favorites was  the ham , marmalade and butter with the little crusts cut off...(no tea in sight)... So this is me taking that English favorite and making it into a more acceptable and hearty Big-girl treat and having it make a little sense :-) . Im replacing the ham with prosciutto and the thinly slice white bread with a nice rustic Italian loaf and for the butter a creamy dreamy marscapone.
 Run over to Stop and Shop on Friday for a gorgeous loaf of Italian bread for 99cents!!..some marscapone cheese(if you have never had this it is super buttery and creamy!!) and some prosciutto. Heat up the indoor grill (because it's raining ...AGAIN!!) and slice the bread length wise. Brush with some olive oil and fresh rosemary sprigs...grill till crispy with grill marks. Spread one side with the marscapone cheese and the other with the marmalade layer the prosciutto between the breads and then slice into sandwiches...I would recommend serving with a nice sweet red pepper soup and and big glass of iced tea:) Another fantastic way to serve these sandwiches is for a brunch. Make a nice fruit salad and a plate of grilled spicy red cherry peppers and serve with some prosecco.... Serve al fresco!!(if the rain actually stops)
