Ingredients

Instructions

  1. Heat a dry pan and toast the fig bread pieces until lightly crisp on the edges.
  2. Remove the bread and let it cool slightly so it stays crunchy.
  3. In the same pan, warm the ham briefly until just fragrant, not crispy.
  4. In a large bowl, combine salad greens, tomatoes, and shallot.
  5. Whisk olive oil, honey, vinegar, and black pepper directly over the greens.
  6. Add warm ham and toasted fig bread.
  7. Toss gently so the bread absorbs some dressing but keeps its texture.

Serving Ideas

  • Serve slightly warm for dinner so the ham and bread stand out.
  • For lunch the next day, pack bread separately and mix just before eating.
  • Works well as a shared plate with soup or a simple vegetable side.
