This salad is just okay. It's not bad, but it's not something I would make again.

I found the pork to be a bit dry. I would recommend cooking it for less time or using a different cut of meat.

This salad is a bit too heavy on the dressing for my taste. I would recommend using less dressing or making your own.

I'm not a big fan of arugula, so I used spinach instead. It worked just as well.

I love the combination of flavors in this salad. The sweetness of the balsamic vinegar pairs perfectly with the salty prosciutto and the bitterness of the arugula.

This salad is a great way to use up leftover pork. I had some roasted pork in the fridge and it worked perfectly.

I'm not a big fan of pork, but this salad changed my mind. The pork was tender and juicy, and the dressing was flavorful without being too heavy.
