I stuffed some large shrimp with seasoned crab meat and wrapped them in prosciutto.

We finished off the roasted beet salad I made yesterday and Susan added a nice salad.

    It is a kind of Italian ham that can be eaten raw. I like it better than bacon, for cooking things like shrimp and scallops, because you do not have to worry about how done it is and can focus on the expensive seafood.

    Here it is.

    Beet Salad with Oregano, Pecans and Goat Cheese
    Fine Cooking, Oct-Nov, 2009

    8-10 med beets (red, golden, or a combination)
    3 T EVOO
    3 T aged balsamic vinegar
    S&P to taste
    4 oz soft goat cheese crumbled
    2 T chopped fresh oregano
    ¼ C lightly toasted pecan pieces

    Steam the beets until a paring knife enters easily - 35-40 min, depending on size. Cool so that you can handle and peel the beets and slice into wedges

    Transfer the beets to a serving bowl and drizzle with EVOO and balsamic vinegar. Season with S&P. Sprinkle the goat cheese, oregano, and pecans over the beets and serve.

    COMMENTS: Can substitute blue cheese or feta for the goat cheese and walnuts for the pecans.

    I roasted the beets on the grill, with some pecan wood, for added flavor.

    To roast pecans, place the nut halves on a cooking sheet and place in the oven at 350 for 8-10, minutes, stirring once.
