Detox

I am in serious need of a detox after the weekend I had.  It started with some of these
Followed by a LOT of these
A breakfast the next day of this
You get the idea.  It went on like that throughout the entire weekend. After brunch on Sunday I had to draw the line and start a detox until the next weekends festivities.  I decided to keep it light and fresh with veggie & pork kebabs and a greek salad.  The secret is all in the marinade, which i use on the meat and mushrooms.  You can use whatever assortment of veggies you prefer, I used zucchini, yellow squash, red & orange bell pepper, onion and mushroom.  For the salad I did a mix of kalamata olives,  tomato, cucumber, romaine lettuce and fresh feta. 



Marinade:
1/2 C. oil
1/3 C. soy sauce
1/4 C. red wine vinegar
2 T. fresh lemon juice
1 T. worcestershire sauce
1 t. dry yellow mustard
1 clove garlic
salt & pepper

Mix all ingredients together, cover meat and mushrooms with marinade.  Save 1/2 C. of marinade to baste the kebabs with while cooking. 

To assemble the kebobs, I like to do all veggies on one skewer and all meat on the other, it allows the skewers to cook evenly.  

Salad Dressing: 
1 t. dijon mustard
1/2 lemon juiced
1 T. red wine vinegar
Oil, salt & pepper to taste
