So today I remembered I had some meat in my frig that either needed to be frozen or fixed! So since it was SUPER nice out today, I decided to marinate in some Italian dressing for a few hours and then put it on the grill. I went to the store after the kiddos woke up to grab a few veggies. I am COMPLETELY out of EVERYTHING, so I HAD to have SOMETHING that went with the mini steaks. I know if my cuz is reading this, he would be like, that's not a steak, that's a BITE of a steak! HAHAHA!!!!!!! :)
I grabbed some asparagus, broccoli, cauliflower and carrots at the store. I would've put in some peppers, but the kiddos aren't big on peppers, so I opted to leave them out. Well, this time anyways.. ;)
I grabbed 2 big pieces of foil, and made it into a x shape. Put the cut up veggies on the foil, sprinkled just a bit of garlic salt over the top and then folded up the top part of the foil, then put a little bit of water in the bottom just so it wouldn't stick. Then folded up the ends and put it on the grill. I put it on high heat just because I wanted to make sure the veggies were nice and soft for my littlest to be able to eat. And eat did he! That boy loves his veggies, and meat! :)
I had it on the grill for about 20 minutes before I put the meat on. I put the meat on for about 10 minutes. It didn't take very long for my small pieces, well, um, BITES of steak to cook! :)
It was a very good "summer" meal! Can't wait to grill out more! Gonna play around with some spices to "rub" my meat down and sit for a few hours before grilling!!! :)
This is a SUPER easy meal, and you can add or opt out for different veggies! Or do a complete veggie meal and not add the steaks.
I don't have a "real" recipe for this, but this is what I did:
Whatever kind of steaks you want. You can also use chicken, any kind you want too!
A bottle of Italian dressing
Take the steaks or chicken and put it in a baggie. Dump some Italian dressing all over the top til it's pretty much covered.
Place the baggie in a bowl and put in frig until ready to use.
Heat up grill, and place steaks or chicken on until ready!
ENJOY!!!!!
For the veggies:
2 pieces of foil, place on counter into a x shape
1 stalk of broccoli
A bunch of cauliflower
A bunch of baby carrots
1 bunch of asparagus
Garlic salt
Water
Chop up into bite size pieces and place all veggies on foil. Put on as much as you want, or as little. Sprinkle with a bit of garlic salt and add just enough water so it won't stick to the bottom or burn as you grill it. You can either put this on for a long time so your veggie will be soft, or as little so it will still be crunchy. I put mine on high heat for right about 30 minutes total. It was nice and soft, but like I said, that's how I wanted it! Once my little guy gets more teeth, I won't put it on as long.
ENJOY!!!!
The veggies all cut up ready to be grilled....
Checked it on the grill, so they are nice and soft and steamy, rady to eat! YUMMY!!!
YUMMY!!!!!
Our complete meal!!!
