Do we really have to get out the grill ? I mean, come on. It is not easier. It's a lot of trouble and what do you end up with ?.......A dried up hamb. or hot dog. Oh my Goodness, if I never see another piece of charcoal I should be so happy. Isn't charcoal lighter the secret ingredient ? My family raves about barbecuing. I certainly don't know why. Most of the time they are in such a hurry to get the barbecuing done, the rest of the meal is barely started. That is what would happen every time. I would be making a veg. salad, a fruit salad and maybe some salsa with chips. I'd just be getting started and the call for...Food is ready ! What ?! So I started forgetting about the barbecue part and told who every is doing it they had to do all the clean up and I would do the clean up for the food in the kitchen. Surprise ! No more barbecuing. To be honest I just don't care for barbecued meat. Never any beef. So for this year it's going to be a salsa recipe I got from Giada that has pineapple and avocado, yummy. Then how about some salads with what ever veggie you like, have a few dressings to choose from and maybe frozen yogurt for dessert ? Sounds like an easy care free day to me. So sit back put your feet up enjoy a glass of ice tea with lemon and were set.
