I'm definitely NOT an amazing cook or anything, and these recipes are pretty simple, but we like them. :)
I originally started and kept this blog as a private recipe blog so that I could have someplace to keep and sort all my recipes more easily by ingredients and etc while meal planning, but since then have made it public so that any of my family and friends who are interested can try them out too. Enjoy!
-Oh, and let me know if you try them, and/or have any ideas or recipes to share (I'm ALWAYS looking for new ones)!

Chicken & Veggie Shishkabobs


These are so easy and yummy! -They just might be our family's new favorite meal! I found the marinade recipe randomly online (I sadly don't remember where so as to give credit... allrecipes.com maybe? -I just googled shishkabobs) and we added what sounded good to us, made it and fell in love!

*Note: we have made these a few times now, both outside on the grill and on our little George Foreman grill... super easy! :)

Ingredients:

For the kabobs:

Chicken Breast, cubed (we use about 2-3 breasts)
Veggies, cut up into bite size pieces (we use various peppers, onions, grape tomatoes and etc)
skewers
For Marinade:
3/4 cup Soy Sauce
2/3 cup Veggie Oil
1/2 cup Lemon Juice
1/4 cup Worcestershire Sauce
1/4 cup Mustard
2 cloves Garlic (I just added Garlic Salt instead with the pepper)
Salt & Pepper
Directions:
*If using wooden skewers, remember to soak in water for at least 30 minutes before using.

Mix marinade together well in a med-large bowl (which you will let the chicken soak/marinade in) -we like to reserve some in a separate bowl on the side (about a cup or so) before adding the raw chicken for extra basting while cooking.

Place chicken pieces in to marinade, cover and allow to soak in the fridge for at least 1 hour (the longer the better).

Prepare skewers as desired for cooking, & then just cook until chicken is well done (basting the skewers more while cooking) & enjoy!

**We've been making either fruit smoothies or fruit bowls to go with them, so yummy!! :)
