Grilling Like an American
Today was the first time this season we used the grill! Summer's comin'! I feel like on Memorial Day you have to grill. So I did - like a good American.
Vegetable Steak Kabobs
recipe from: http://www.tasteofhome.com/recipes/vegetable-steak-kabobs
These were so easy it's crazy. I was expecting the beef to be tough since it was such a cheap cut, but it was really tender. And the marinade was really delicious - I will definitely be using that marinade recipe again and will be making these again.
Grades:
Megan - A (So tender and flavorful. The veggies tasted amazing from the grill and marinade as well!)
Noelle - C- (Noelle was not too into this and I'm not sure why. Maybe because of the marinade flavor? Maybe because she was SUPER tired when I served it to her? She started out by trying a mushroom and decided she didn't like it and moved on to steak. She liked the steak, but said it was chewy. While she was eating her steak I asked her if she wanted any more mushrooms and she said no. So, I ate her mushrooms. When I ate the last one she started crying saying she wanted a mushroom. Huh? I thought you didn't like them??? I was able to distract her with some tomatoes. She really liked the tomatoes and said she didn't want any more steak. I tried to get her to eat more by eating a small piece myself. She immediately started crying saying, "I want that steak! Give me that steak!" I explained to her that I was chewing it and couldn't give it to her, but she had about 15 other pieces exactly like it on her plate. But, she really just wanted the one I was chewing and kept saying, "Please mommy. Give it to me. I NEED that steak!" while hysterically crying. Pretty much being the poster child of over-tiredness. When her tantrum finally calmed down she was through with eating and I was through listening to her craziness. Dinner over.)
