Outstanding

Your guests will be amazed to find out how tasty these simple snacks are. Peaches or plums also work well in place of the nectarines. You can assemble the bundles up to an hour in advance. Just cover them with plastic wrap, and refrigerate until ready to serve.

Yield: 8 servings (serving size: 3 bundles)

Ingredients

  • 4  cups  lightly packed trimmed arugula
  • 1  teaspoon  extravirgin olive oil
  • 1/8  teaspoon  freshly ground black pepper
  • 12  (1/2-ounce) slices prosciutto, each cut in half lengthwise
  • 3  nectarines, each cut into 8 wedges (about 3/4 pound)

Preparation

Combine first 3 ingredients in a large bowl; toss gently to combine. Arrange 3 or 4 arugula leaves at 1 end of 1 prosciutto strip. Place 1 nectarine wedge on top of arugula; roll up. Place bundle, seam side down, on a serving plate. Repeat procedure with remaining arugula, prosciutto, and nectarines.

Made this for two separate parties this week, and it was a huge success. Used fresh pineapple because nectarines not available now. Definitely a keeper!12/14/08

Love this! We made it for a dinner party and it was wonderful. Of course, it's only as good as the nectarines you can find. We went to a small upscale local market and bought several really nice nectarines.01/13/08
