Fall Harvest Apple Orzo Salad
  1. Preheat the oven to 375° F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

  2. On the baking sheet, toss together the hazelnuts, pumpkin seeds, butter, paprika, and chipotle. Arrange in a single layer. Lay the prosciutto around the seeds/nuts. Bake for 10 minutes or until the seeds/nuts are toasted and the prosciutto is crisp. Drizzle over the honey, throw back in the oven for 5 minutes. Sprinkle with sea salt.

  3. Meanwhile, cook the orzo as directed on the box. Drain. In a large salad bowl, combine the kale, brussels sprouts, and warm orzo. Add the apples and pomegranate arils.

  4. To make the vinaigrette. In a skillet, cook the butter, shallot, and thyme over medium heat until the butter is browned, 5 minutes. Remove from the heat, add the cider and cinnamon. Boil over high heat, 5 minutes, until reduced by half. Add the olive oil, honey, salt, pepper, and chili flakes. Taste and adjust as needed.

  5. Pour the vinaigrette over the salad, tossing to combine. Top the salad with toasted nuts/seeds, prosciutto, Manchego, and Feta. Eat and enjoy!
