BSI Winner!

by Marisa

Happy Monday!  Hope you all had a great weekend and are surviving the time change!  I have to say that I am LOVING being able to take my dinner pictures in natural lighting again!  I know… it’s a crazy food blogger thing to get excited about spacer

Let’s get to this week’s BSI winner!  So, I’m not sure if my ingredient choice of prosciutto was a little too scary for everyone because I only got a few submissions.  However, the ones I did get were absolutely delicioso!

Now for the winner!  Gah!!!!  It’s so hard to choose!  They all were so amazing, but there was one that I couldn’t stop thinking about – Carolynne’s Grilled Asparagus Wrapped in Prosciutto!  I’ve had asparagus wrapped in prosciutto,  but never cooked on the grill!  I can’t wait to make a big tray of these for my next barbeque!

Thanks to all who participated!  Stay tuned for the next ingredient chosen by this week’s host, Renee at My Kitchen Adventures!

Have a great day, everyone!

What new recipe or food did you try this weekend?

Over the weekend I had two major baking fails. First, I tried to make bagels with expired yeast. They didn’t rise at all…or taste good. Then I attempted Avocado Banana Bread and it was not sweet enough and was really dry. Ugh. spacer

Hmm It was a typical weekend for me no new recipes, though looked up a lot I wanna try!! =)

I was going to participate – I always want to but always seem to miss out – but I forgot to get prosciutto =(

you and Biz always make the prettiest food!

I was going to participate, too, but then things got hectic… I have to admit that I haven’t tried anything new for a while… I should really change that!

Aw, love JeninRL’s comment! spacer Sorry you didn’t get more participation – maybe it wasn’t as popular an ingredient – I love it and actually never had it before marrying my Italian husband – so many years wasted! spacer

Happy Monday Chica – and thanks for hosting this week!

Great round-up…I love prosciutto! spacer
I tried a new recipe for Thai red curry this weekend, which was fantastic…super delicious! spacer

HI Marissa, I bought some prosciutto on the weekend, and will check out these ideas. Hope you are having a great day!

8 Jenn@slim-shoppin { 03.14.11 at 2:06 pm }

I wanted to participate this week, but ran out of time. I loved the secret ingredient you picked!
I made chicken chili with hominy for the first time this weekend, it turned out great!

9 Jen { 03.14.11 at 2:24 pm }

I’ve never had prosciutto, but all of these recipes look fantastic!

10 Aimee { 03.14.11 at 2:37 pm }

Now see these are the recipes that make going vegetarian quite a challenge! They all look delicious. I made zucchini carrot muffins over the weekend. I’ve always done either one or the other. I never thought to mix the two (I know not exactly rocket science )! They tasted great and were quite healthy. They are gone now thanks to the husband.

11 Tami { 03.14.11 at 2:38 pm }

Thanks for hosting BSI Marisa. All of the recipes look amazing.

Not a lot of cooking going on around here this weekend. I tried a couple more of the Weight Watchers Fresh Meals and reviewed them but that it about the only thing new on my plate!

Sorry, I had NO prosciutto recipes! These look great though! Thanks!

A day late, a dollar short.

I just ate a pear, bleu cheese, spinach, and PROSCIUTTO sandwich. And it was divine. I need to work on my timeliness!

All of the submissions look amazing!

14 foodies at home { 03.14.11 at 8:33 pm }

Prosciutto is one of my favorite things! Looks like I have come to the right place!

15 Skinny Sushi { 03.14.11 at 8:58 pm }

How did I miss this? My favorite use of prosciutto is as a pizza topping along with chopped mushrooms, olives, and a hard boiled egg.

16 Veronica { 03.14.11 at 9:13 pm }

This weekend I made my first buffalo chicken salad! It was my first time making anything with buffalo sauce. I wanted to participate in BSI but it’s so hard for me to find prosciutto that I didn’t bother. Sorry!

17 Ashley @ the fit academic { 03.14.11 at 11:48 pm }

beautiful pictures! This weekend I made a tortellini caprese salad that was delicious!
