Here for the pear prosciutto and gorgonzola rocket salad? You fancy bastard! It’s the short post tonight – but can I least offer up a few words of encouragement? Every now and then a meal is worth spending a few syns on. See in the picture below? There’s cheese and there’s fat on the ham but do you know, it’ll do you no harm. Have it, syn it and enjoy it. Life’s too short: remember our views on making gravy from mushy peas? Apply the same logic here! Of course, if you’re not a fan of cheese that smells like a bellend, pears that make your teeth itch or capers which serve no purpose, leave them out! To the recipe, then.
to make pear prosciutto and gorgonzola rocket salad you will need:
- 200g mixed salad leaves
- 200g rocket
- 2 pears, peeled cored and sliced (or 6 quartered figs, or 2 white peaches, sliced)
- 8 slices parma ham (4 syns)
- 60g parmesan shavings (2x HeA)
- 100g gorgonzola, cut into chunks (16 syns)
- 500g tomatoes, halved

- handful of basil
- 2 tbsp balsamic vinegar
to make pear prosciutto and gorgonzola rocket salad you should:
- mix it all together
- no really, that’s all there is to it
We’ve had a glut of good salads recently – partly because we’re trying to eat lighter meals but also because I’m sick of eating boring lunches. Make a little box of this up the day before and you’ll be looking forward to it all day. You could even team it with the tomato salad we posted the other day and have a right posh night of it!
