Last Friday Topher & I had a fun & relaxing evening with some of my extended family as we bid adieu to my cousin Chris, his wife Kimberly, and their kids Emeline & Gary, who are moving to Norway next month. They'll only be there for three years, but that's a long time, considering that Emeline will be in middle school when they come back!Any time my family gets together like this, there's always a lot of people and a ton of food. Last Friday was no exception. My husband has taken to calling each of these gatherings "The Anderson Family Christmas Special," regardless of what holiday or event we're actually celebrating.
What We Ate:
- Grilled salmon with melon salsa
- Grilled London broil (see marinade recipe below)
- Surry sausages
- Grilled onions, red & yellow peppers, & eggplant
- Cucumber & red onion salad
- Sunny Summery Quinoa
- Cheesecake with strawberry topping
- Lime tart
My aunt Kay contributed the London broil, and her marinade is fantastic (and easy!): 3/4 cup of soy sauce, 1 tablespoon of olive oil, 2 cloves of garlic, a squirt of lemon juice, and ground black pepper to taste. Yum!
