Roasted shrimp **I prepared this for a starter, Easter Sunday. Made my own cocktail sauce, not Ina's.

Ina Garten's roasted shrimp cocktail

2 pounds (12 to 15-count) shrimp
1 tablespoon good olive oil
1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper

For the sauce:

1/2 cup chili sauce
1/2 cup ketchup
3 tablespoons prepared horseradish
2 teaspoons freshly squeezed lemon juice
1/2 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
1/4 teaspoon hot sauce (recommended: Tabasco)
Directions
Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.

Peel and devein the shrimp, leaving the tails on. Place them on a sheet pan with the olive oil, salt, and pepper and spread them in 1 layer. Roast for 8 to10 minutes, just until pink and firm and cooked through. Set aside to cool.

For the sauce, combine the chili sauce, ketchup, horseradish, lemon juice, Worcestershire sauce, and hot sauce. Serve as a dip with the shrimp.

Italian Meatball Rolls (Better Homes & Gdns)
Refrigerated Italian-style turkey meatballs take the work out of this favorite--and help lower the calories and fat, too.

2-1/2 cups thinly sliced cremini mushrooms
1/2 cup chopped onion (1 medium)
2 cloves garlic, minced
1 8-ounce can no-salt-added tomato sauce
2 tablespoons balsamic vinegar
1/2 teaspoon dried rosemary, crushed
1/2 teaspoon dried oregano, crushed
8 ounces refrigerated Italian-style cooked turkey meatballs (8 meatballs), halved
4 whole wheat hot dog buns
1/2 cup shredded part-skim mozzarella cheese (2 ounces)
Snipped fresh oregano (optional)

1. Preheat broiler. Coat a large nonstick skillet with nonstick spray; preheat over medium heat.

Add mushrooms, onion, and garlic to hot skillet; cook for 5 to 10 minutes or until tender, stirring occasionally. Add tomato sauce, balsamic vinegar, rosemary, and the dried oregano. Bring to boiling; reduce heat. Simmer, covered, for 2 minutes.

Stir in meatballs. Cook about 5 minutes more or until meatballs are heated through.

2. Meanwhile, open buns so they lay flat and place on a baking sheet. Broil 4 to 5 inches from the heat about 1 minute or until lightly toasted. Divide meatball mixture among buns. Sprinkle with cheese. Broil for 1 to 2 minutes more or until cheese is melted. If desired, sprinkle with fresh oregano. Makes 4 servings

SMOKED SALMON DIP (Foodgawker) 8 ounces smoked wild Alaskan salmon (use hot smoked, aka "kippered" salmon, not lox) 4 ounces cream cheese Ã¯Â¿Â½ cup sour cream Ã¯Â¿Â½ cup mayonnaise Ã¯Â¿Â½ teaspoon Louisiana-style hot sauce 2 tablespoons capers, drained and roughly chopped 2 tablespoons chopped walnuts (optional, but they add some nice texture)* 2 teaspoons cream horseradish 2 teaspoons finely chopped dill, plus extra for garnish (or fresh chives) 1 teaspoon lemon juice 1/8 teaspoon freshly ground pepper 1. Break the salmon into small pieces, discarding skin and bones. Set aside. 2. Place the cream cheese in a medium, microwave-safe mixing bowl. Microwave on high, 30 seconds or until softened. 3. Add all remaining ingredients (except salmon) to the cream cheese and stir to combine. Add flaked salmon and using a rubber spatula, fold into mixture until thoroughly coated. 4. Place in a serving dish, and garnish with extra dill. Keep refrigerated until ready to serve. May be made 1 day in advance.

Chicken Breasts Grilled With Spicy Orange-Ginger (serves 6 to 8) Citrus on chicken gives a delicate yet full-bodied flavour. This recipe can be served off the grill or at room temperature for your buffet table. You can make it year round and enjoy it in the fall and winter months served with roasted root vegetables, creamy mashed potatoes or rice. Come spring and summer, serve it with different kinds of salsa, couscous, grilled vegetables, or salads. 3 chicken breasts, cut in half and pounded to Ã¯Â¿Â½-inch thick (you can ask your butcher to do this for you) Ã¯Â¿Â½ cup fresh orange juice 2 Tbsp seasoned rice wine vinegar Ã¯Â¿Â½ cup orange marmalade 1 tsp red pepper flakes 1 Tbsp minced fresh ginger 1 garlic clove, minced 4 Tbsp olive oil Kosher salt 1 Tbsp canola oil Place the chicken in a container large enough to hold the chicken and about 1 cup of liquid. To prepare the marinade, in a glass bowl whisk together the orange juice, vinegar, marmalade, red pepper flakes, ginger, garlic, and olive oil. Pour the marinade over the chicken. Cover the container, and refrigerate for eight hours or, even better, overnight. This will tenderize the chicken. Remove the chicken from the marinade and pat dry. Sprinkle both sides with kosher salt. Heat a grill pan or heavy skillet until hot, or fire up your outdoor grill. Brush the surface of the grill with 1 tablespoon of canola oil. Turn down the heat to medium-high. Place the chicken pieces on the grill, three inches apart. Do not place chicken pieces too close together or they will create steam. Grill chicken pieces for three minutes on each side. Continue to grill for one minute more on each side for a total grilling time of eight minutes. Some of the pieces may grill faster if they are thinner than the others. Keep your eye on the chicken so it doesn't overcook or burn. Remove the chicken from the grill. Place on a cutting board and let rest for five minutes. Slice the chicken into strips or serve whole.

I'm making this for dinner tonight. Supposed to taste just like Olive Garden. Guess we'll see! ZUPPA TUSCANA 1 lb. Italian sausage (or half regular, half turkey sausage) 1 large onion, chopped 3-4 cloves garlic, minced 1/2 cup white wine to deglaze the pan 1/2 tsp. red pepper flakes 2 russett potatoes, peeled and cut into 1/2-inch chunks 2 cups fresh kale, chopped 3 cups chicken broth 2-1/2 cups water 1 cup heavy cream Salt and pepper Place a large stockpot or Dutch oven on the stove over medium heat. Crumble the sausage into the pan and cook until well browned. Remove the cooked sausage from the pot with a slotted spoon and transfer to a bowl; set aside. Add the chopped onion to the pan and sautÃ¯Â¿Â½ until tender, about 5-7 minutes. Add the garlic and red pepper flakes to the pan and cook for a minute more, just until fragrant. Add the wine to the pot and stir, scraping the bottom of the pan to loosen any browned bits. Add the potatoes, kale, chicken broth and water to the pot. Return the sausage to the pot. Increase the heat to medium-high, bring to a boil, and then reduce to a simmer on medium-low. Cover and let simmer for about 20 minutes, or until the potatoes are fork-tender and cooked through. Stir in the heavy cream and season with salt and pepper to taste. Serve immediately.

Hey Jasdip--got a name for that recipe? LOL! Also, what do we do with those 4 1-quart bags? Friday is Canada Day and this weekend we will be celebrating Independence Day here in the states. So there will be a lot of grills fired up, I imagine. Here's one of my favorite grill recipes. It's great for vegetarians but even if you aren't, you won't miss the meat. Grilled Stuffed Portobello Mushrooms 2/3 c. chopped plum tomatoes 1/4 c. (1 oz.) shredded mozzarella cheese 1 tsp. olive oil, divided (I use a little more) 1/2 tsp. finely chopped fresh or 1/8 tsp. dried rosemary 1/8 tsp. coarsely ground black pepper 1 clove garlic, crushed 4 (5 inch) portobello mushroom caps 1 Tbsp. lemon juice 2 tsp. low-sodium soy sauce Cooking spray 2 tsp. minced fresh parsley Combine the tomato, cheese, 1/2 tsp. oil, rosemary, pepper and garlic in a small bowl. Remove the brown gills and stem from the underside of mushroom caps using a spoon. Discard gills and stems. Combine 1/2 tsp. oil (I use 1 tsp.), lemon juice and soy sauce in a small bowl; brush over both sides of the mushroom caps. Place the mushrooms, stem side down, on a grill rack coated with cooking spray and grill for 5 minutes on each side or until soft. Fill each mushroom cap with 1/4 c. the tomato mixture. Cover and grill 3 minutes or until cheese is melted. Sprinkle with parsley. Serves 4. Time will vary depending on the size of the mushrooms.
