Winner Announced
I’m incredibly honored to announce my Orange Ginger Salmon Nachos with Mango Pineapple Orange Salsa was the Grand Prize and Appetizer category winner in the Cedar Bay Blogger Challenge. Thank you, Cedar Bay Grilling Company for hosting the challenge and sharing your incredible products for recipe creation.
Bloggers received two free samples for testing and recipe creation: Sugar & Spice 24 oz Cedar Planked Atlantic Salmon and one 24 oz Applewood with Orange & Ginger Cedar Planked Atlantic Salmon. Both flavors are absolutely delicious and a breeze to make.
My restaurant quality recipe wowed the judges as a showman in appearance, and pops with gourmet appeal to suit all lifestyles and tastes for your entertaining needs.
Wonton wrappers give the recipe an Asian flare, and crunchy texture that accentuates the flavor of the mango, pineapple and orange salsa. The Cedar Bay Grilling Company Applewood with Orange & Ginger Cedar Planked Atlantic Salmon is perfected with crumbled Queso Blanco Jalapeño cheese, and a sprinkle of Furikake Rice Seasoning.
Special Thanks
I’d like to thank Ethan Casucci, VP of Client Services at Thought For Food and Son, for giving me the opportunity to try this wonderful product in my dishes. I can honestly state that Cedar Bay Grilling Company’s Planked Atlantic Salmon products are one of the finest products I’ve ever had the pleasure to test and use for recipe creation in over three years of participating in Blogger Recipe Challenges.

Notes
1. I used a cookie sheet to transport the planked salmon to the grill to keep drips at a minimum
2. Be sure to check on the salmon from time to time to keep from having any flair ups. I didn’t have issues with flair ups but checked the hot grill several times just to be sure.
