My "Next House" Meal

These are the items that I want to grow myself in the backyard of our next house.
Right now we live close to downtown and we love it, but I really want to be able to grow some basic produce.
So, I'm stating to all of you, right now...today, that I have a new goal of growing a garden when we move into our next house. But, in the mean time, we cook. And, tonight, we cook steak.

Consider this a fair warning: these two simple ingredients will make you the designated steak cooker with all of your friends, family and neighbors. It's dy-no-mite. Wash your steak with water, pat dry with a paper towel, and rub in the lemon pepper. Put them in a plastic bag and pour in the Allegro marinade. Tonight we're using the spicy creole, but the original is great, too. Let them soak in the goodness for about 30 minutes. It tenderizes the meat unlike anything else I've tried. You will barely have to chew. Seriously.

This is garlic in some EVOO (that's Extra Virgin Olive Oil for those of you that have never watched Rachel Ray).

I added these onions and my trusty Lawry's Season Salt to the garlic. Yum.

I usually cut my steaks in half to help them cook faster. Still trying to perfect that fancy criss-cross business.

And, finally...the corn on the cob. I sprayed the foil with that fancy canola oil in a can and added some salt and pepper. I put them on the grill ahead of the steaks ( a bit too far ahead, but they were still good.)

Okay, this concludes my Pioneer Woman Wannabe section of my blog. Now, go cook something delicious.
