  • One pound fresh figs, rinsed, dried, and tops removed
  • 2 oz fresh baby arugula
  • 5 oz roquefort or blue cheese
  • 1 slice prosciutto cut into thin strips
  1. Make two deep cuts in the top of the fig, perpendicular to each other
  2. Pipe 1/2 oz of the cheese into the opening
  3. Top with a leaf of arugula and a strip of prosciutto
  4. Serve immediately and enjoy!
