Steak kebabs :
When you get home, marinate the sirloin kebabs in teriyake sauce in the fridge — 1/2 hour or an hour is fine, longer is even better.
You can broil or do them in the grill pan — if you do in the oven, do the steak first and let it stand while the asparagus cooks
if you broil, rack should not be on the top one — one down — and on med-high broil
watch carefully and you will want to turn them a few times — total cooking time about 10 mins I would think. Cut one open a few minutes early — should be pink but not red.
Roasted lemony asparagus
heat oven to 400
Break or cut off the tough ends, wash and dry VERY thoroughly
Spread on a sheet pan (line with foil, clean up easier 🙂
Drizzle with olive oil and juice from 1/2 lemon
Broil for about 20 mins until tender and starting to brown — turn them once
OPTIONAL: sprinkle a little fresh parmesan on some for the kids
Israeli couscous
Follow directions on the box but use veggie stock instead of water, or 1/2 and 1/2 works too
Hummus & pita
Just open up store bought hummus and heat the pita. We have a gas range and a friend told me to heat the pita directly on the burner at a low heat for a few seconds on each side – flip with tongs. It’s amazing how much better they are when they’re heated like this.
Enjoy.
