Lets do some grillin'

mmmmmMMMMmmmmmm

Look at those grilled beauties. 

So this recipe called for lamb,

I had a coupon for organic lamb.

PERFECT, right?

NO!

The store didn't have the lamb that I had the coupon for. 

Because I refused to pay full price, I bought beef.

And it was still delicious. 

So you could use beef, lamb, pork, chicken, or even portabella.

The dipping sauce was amazing and the flavor from the grilled lemon totally made the dish.

I served them with an orzo salad, 

you could also grill up some veggies, potatoes or cook up some rice.  

Anything would be good with these goodies.  

ENJOY!
