Nothing New

I know I haven't posted anything lately and believe me I have been hearing it from everyone:) The reason is just because we haven't really done anything out of the ordinary lately. So, here are a couple of yummy dinners we have made. Salmon We were shopping the other day and they had fresh salmon on sale. I have never ever cooked salmon, but decided to give it a try. Thanks to our great neighbors, I got a really good recipe for grilled salmon. Lemon Grilled Salmon 3/4 tsp dill weed 1/2 tsp lemon pepper 3/4 tsp garlic salt 1/4 cup brown sugar 3 Tbsp chicken broth 3 Tbsp vegetable oil 3 Tbsp soy sauce Juice of 1 lemon Put Salmon in glass pan, sprinkle dill weed, lemon pepper and garlic salt on top. Mix remaining ingredients and pour over. Refrigerate over night. Grill time depends on size of salmon. Steak and Potato Kabobs 1 boneless beef sirloin steak, cut 1 inch thick 1/4 cup bottled red wine vinegar and oil salad dressing 2 Tbsp snipped fresh thyme or 2 tsp dried 2 Tbsp Worcestershire sauce 1/4 tsp garlic powder 2 medium green peppers, cut 1 inch pieces 1 medium red onion, cut into wedges 1/2 or a 20 ounce package refrigerated potato wedges-about 32 wedges For Marinade: Mix together-salad dressing, thyme, Worcestershire sauce, and garlic powder Marinate in fridge 4-6 hours Put kabobs together leaving 1/4 inch between pieces. Grill kabobs over medium heat for 5-6 minutes per side. Half way through grilling brush with left over marinade. Makes 10 skewers. Well, that is all for now. Hope you enjoy these delicious recipes.
