netflix just delivered the green lantern and we had two nice angus ribeye steaks in the fridge. since the weather broke this afternoon, we decided we'd fire up the grill and have a nice date night! :-)
we had dinner is less than 30 minutes, here's how:
2 steaks, seasoned with sea salt and pampered chef smokey applewood rub
fresh steamed broccoli
frozen southwest style sweet potatoes with corn and black beans
fresh french bread
so i seasoned the steaks and nick grilled them. he's still working on perfecting beef, but they were pretty good. while nick grilled, i baked the bread ($0.99 special; take and bake at kroger); steamed the broccoli; and heated up the frozen side dish. if you haven't tried the alexia frozen items yet, check them out. they are not any more expensive than other brands and they are all natural and come in some great flavors. they also make the chipolte flavored sweet potato fries i love!
dinner was perfect, the green lantern was not too shabby. all in all, a wonderful thursday night with my husband and cute little pup.
