This salad recipe offers a balance of salty and sweet flavors. The saltiness of the parmesan cheese and prosciutto is paired with the sweetness of the ripe figs and a surprising crunch from the roasted pine nuts. These toppings are delicious on a bed of baby kale greens with a drizzle of Hanley’s Garlic & Red Wine vinaigrette. This recipe is an excellent appetizer or lunchtime salad as it is relatively light.

Pro Tip: We recommend peeling the edges of your figs for a softer bite. We photographed our recipe with skin on so the figs look beautifully intact but peeled them before enjoying the salad.
