Prosciutto Wrapped Asparagus Salad

Sign me up for anything wrapped in prosciutto! Add grilled halloumi into the mix and its game over. The combination of the saltiness with the slight bitterness of the arugula is a really fun combo. I love using arugula as a salad green because it is a bitter green which is great for supporting your liver to naturally detox. Prosciutto can absolutely be a part of a healthy balanced diet. Unlike other meats you find at a deli, prosciutto is usually made with just the pork and sea salt. Your best bet is to pick some up from a local butcher for the best quality.
