Categories     appetizer

Time 18m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 7

2 heads Belgian endive, quartered lengthwise
2 small heads radicchio, quartered lengthwise
Salt and pepper
1/4 pound sliced prosciutto, cut slices in 1/2 on an angle across the center
Extra-virgin olive oil, for brushing
2 dried figs, finely chopped
1/2 cup balsamic vinegar

Steps:

  • Preheat a grill pan over medium-high heat.
  • Season the quartered pieces endive and readicchio with salt and pepper. Wrap each section with a half slice of ham. Brush the wrapped sections with extra-virgin olive oil and grill 7 to 8 minutes, turning every couple of minutes, until ham is crispy and lettuce sections are tender.
  • Place figs and vinegar in a pot and bring to a boil, then reduce heat to simmer. Reduce the vinegar down to a few tablespoons, until the fig pieces are soft and vinegar is thick, 5 to 7 minutes.
  • Arrange the lettuce on individual plates or a serving dish and spoon the fig and balsamic reduction over the lettuce, drizzling back and forth over the plate.

TRADER JOE'S "GREATEST AND EASIEST CHOCOLATE CAKE"



Trader Joe's

Taken from a box of Trader Joe's Cocoa Powder. Pretty much the best thing ever, especially if you use really dark cocoa. I use a 9"x13" baking dish, which doesn't hold all the batter, so I pour the extra into a bread pan and it turns out great! This cake is particularly good with chocolate cream cheese frosting.

This sauce is recommended over beef tenderloin, but would also be great over lamb, pork or even grilled veggies!!! This sauce can be prepared ahead of time and simply warmed up in the microwave when it's time to serve. Fast and easy. Recipe from Dierberg's Everybody Cooks Sept 2002 edition.
