Ingredients
Scale
- 2 red pears
- 8 slices prosciutto
- 1/2 cup baby arugula
- 4 Tablespoon pomegranate arils
- 1/2 teaspoons olive oil

Instructions
- Wash and dry pears, then slice them into 1/2 inch wedges (about 6-8 slices per pear). Cut away any pieces of the core from the slices.
- Toss the arugula and pomegranate with olive oil and pepper in a small dish.
- Cut each slice of prosciutto in half long ways and lay them flat on a cutting board or plate.
- Lay a pear slice and a small bunch of the arugula mixture on top of one slice of prosciutto.
- Carefully wrap the prosciutto around the arugula salad, just tight enough so that the salad doesn’t easily fall out. Lay them on a small serving platter.
- Sprinkle with extra pepper and pomegranate arils if desired.
