As I write this I am sitting at a zesty in laws watching the Grey Cup. I know it is a day late due to the exciting news about the OpenSky Promotion. The Grey Cup is the championship game for the Canadian Football League – the equivalent of the Super Bowl.
Lets just say the main reason for being here is the food. I am not going to get into details with recipes and shots from the party today because these recipes need a lot of care and attention and there will definitely be a week or more worth of amazing tantalizing recipes. You are not going to believe some of these recipes – I just hope my photography will bring this to life for you and do the food justice. It is 10:00 pm right now and I just finished the Gluten free Crepe.
Below is a sneak peak at the menu line-up.
- Shrimp wrapped in prosciutto
- Salmon Mouselline
- Beef Ravioli with pea and bacon sauce
- Gluten Free Crepes with modified duck con fit, and honey balsamic sauce.
- Leg of lamb with roasted potatoes
- Chocolate Mousse

Zesty Tip: The old saying holds true when cooking seafood. DO NOT overcook! The shrimp will become almost like rubber and it will feel like eating the bottom of your shoe. Trust your judgment and take them out when the time dictates.
The shrimp were huge! So juicy and flavorful and with the roasted prosciutto on the outside ( slightly salty ) – I was in heaven. These guys are super easy to make and I am positive your guests will be impressed. Lets just say everyone in the room put their hand up to try one of these.
Who else likes shrimp? Do you? What are your favorite shrimp recipes? Tell Zest.
I hope you have a great Tuesday and once I get some details ironed out – I have another fun announcement to make.
Take care
zesty

I love shrimp. I would even dare say that they are one of my favorite foods. You receipe looks yummy, but my favorite way to eat them is boiled with spicy cocktail sauce. Yum!
oh man, these look great! I don’t think I’ve ever had prosciutto – I know, right?
I love shrimp in stir frys and on pasta.
I luv anything shrimp!
Enjoy!
i think that anything wrapped in prosciutto is good
. never thought to try shrimp with prosciutto, but that’s got to be amazing!
Next to bacon, prosciutto is the other meat that makes other meat taste great. I am going to make these for my open house this year. Thanks for the idea.
I love Coconut Shrimp!
Have you ever made it? Got a good and easy recipe? Share Please!
I always eat it when I go out, but would love to try and make it at home.
Also had Almond Shrimp at a fancy place years ago and it was the best shrimp I have ever had.
