Tonight our theme was kabobs. I marinated some seitan in a garlic lime marinade and broiled them on kabobs along with some cherry tomatoes and onions. I would have like to grill them, but we don’t have a grill and the ones in the park (which is basically our backyard) are questionable at best and it was a crazy windy day. We also had baked potatoes, but in an unconventional way. I sliced them and stuffed slices of garlic between the potato discs. Then, I gave each potato a healthy splash of salad dressing, just a simple olive and vinegar blend. They were then sealed in their foil containers and baked. With a fresh crack of sea salt, they were melty and flavorful. For dessert, inspired by Jennifershmoo, I made fruit kabobs with pineapple and strawberries and a dipping sauce with some vanilla yogurt and a splash of orange juice.
Mmm, we were full and I am so happy to have an abundance of fresh pineapple at home!

The kabobs look like a great idea! I think I would like to try them using seitan. I agree about public grills. I’ve always been a bit scared of them.

Comment by karen April 24, 2006 @ 1:13 amI was store bought, for lack of time. I like to make it at home as often as I can, which is totally dependant on how much I plan ahead. I can be a bit of slacker.
