The official lazy days of summer have hit me BIG TIME! I'm finding it hard to do anything, especially cook. Even worse, it is so miserably hot that I cringe at the mere mention of turning on my oven. That's where I was at about an hour ago when I was pondering supper. That is, until an idea struck me!
My sister gifted me a Pampered Chef Grill Basket for my birthday last week AND I just went to the store and scored some really awesome looking peppers-red, yellow and green! Why oh why didn't I think to pick up mushrooms, because this marinade is THE BEST for them.
Anyway, my sister came up with this amazing marinade that she used with veggies a couple of weeks ago and I'm trying it on my steak tonight, too. Stay tuned...
Marinade
2 TBSP lemon juice
3 TBSP soy sauce
2 TSP brown sugar
2 TBSP olive oil
1 clove garlic
Mix all together in a plastic bag until sugar dissolves.
For the veggies, I used red, yellow and green peppers, an onion fresh out of the garden, and curse me Perry the Platypus but I had no mushrooms to add to the mix. Yes, the kids are having a hard time with the lazy summer days, too, hence we have lots of Phineas and Ferb!
I am just about as excited as my lazy body can get about supper tonight because these veggies are amazing grilled. I could actually care less about the meat, which for me, is unusual! I'm sure you could make kabobs out of this as well, but my grill basket is just a little lazier side step, so I'm going for that!
Man, I feel like a slug...
