Arugula is a lesser known cruciferous vegetable that provides many of the same benefits as other cruciferous vegetables, which include broccoli, kale, and Brussels sprouts. The hazlenuts provide healthy fats and some protein, and the figs provide plenty of fiber and vitamins. The gorgonzola also provides healthy fats and calcium. 

For added protein, you can add some prosciutto to the dish.
