4 thin slices prosciutto
Balsamic vinegar , for drizzling

Preheat oven to 400°. Place almonds on a small plate. Gently roll each goat cheese round in almonds, pressing gently so they adhere. Place rounds on a parchment-lined baking sheet and cook 10 to 12 minutes, until almonds are lightly browned. Remove and let stand 2 to 3 minutes.

Divide salad greens and sliced peaches among 4 serving plates; top each with 1 slice prosciutto and 1 goat cheese round. Drizzle with vinegar and olive oil and season with salt and pepper.
