Ingredients
12 thin slices prosciutto (not paper-thin) or Tuscany ham slices
100 g soft, spreadable, goat cheese at room temp
1 cup lightly packed baby spinach leaves
12 large dried figs, such as Black Mission, thinly sliced
1/4 cup shredded Parmesan cheese
fresh ground black pepper
1 tbsp Western Family extra virgin olive oil
1 teaspoon dijon mustard
freshly squeezed lemon juice
Italian parsley
Directions
Lay prosciutto (or sliced ham) on work surface in a single layer. Using a thin spatula, lightly spread goat cheese evenly over prosciutto, paying particular attention to the ends for sealing.
Arrange spinach leaves over cheese, then sliced figs, dividing and spacing evenly. Sprinkle with Parmesan and pepper. Starting at short end of each prosciutto slice, gently but firmly roll up jellyroll fashion. Cut rolls crosswise in half to make 2 wheels. Transfer to platter. Cover with plastic wrap and chill. Can be made several hours ahead.
Just before serving, combine olive oil, Dijon and lemon juice in a squeeze bottle with a small spout or small bowl. Shake well or whisk to blend. Squeeze or drizzle mixture over top of prosciutto wheels. Garnish with parsley and serve.
Figs are loaded with fibre, minerals and nutrients to help fend off heart disease, cancer, diabetes, and may also have anti-aging properties.
