The theme for this month’s Creative Cooking Crew’s challenge was, "You’re invited to a Thanksgiving dinner party — bring an appetizer". So, I decided to bring an Arugula, Fig and Prosciutto Tart.
This is such a beautiful tart and the combination of flavors and textures are absolutely amazing! Fresh sweet figs, salty prosciutto, creamy cheese, and lemony spicy arugula. This tart is very easy to make, especially if you decide to use store-bought puff pastry , and there's only fifteen minutes of total cook time.
This Arugula, Fig and Prosciutto Tart would be a great addition to your Thanksgiving table.
Buen provecho!

It sure looks great, but isn't the prosciutto just tossed on the top uncooked instead of baked on the crust per the directions in the recipe?
Erica Dinho
Thanks,Bob!It was a writing mistake.. I fixed the recipe directions.

Don't recognise "arugula" what is it? Ripe figs wouldn't get that far in this house- they're eaten as soon as they appear.

Arugula is Rúcula in Spanish.
