Grilled Pork Tenderloin

We made my brother, Michael's, recipe for grilled pork tenderloin tonight and it was AMAZING!

Recipe:
1 1/4 cups vegetable oil
3/4 cup soy sauce
1/4 cup Worcestershire sauce
2 tbsp dry mustard
1 - 2 tsp pepper
1/2 cup red wine vinegar
1 1/2 tbsp parsley
1/3 cup lemon juice
2 cloves garlic, minced

8 oz sliced fresh mushrooms

METHOD:

Blend the above marinade ingredients in blender. Pour 1/2 to 2/3 over tenderloins and marinate for 3 to 4 hours. Preheat the grill on High, throw them on for 4-5 minutes, flip over 4-5 minutes, turn it to medium, baste with marinade a few times and cook until done (15-20 minutes).

Add mushrooms to remaining marinade and heat. Slice tenderloins and pour marinade over top to serve.

(I grilled each little individual slice afterward because mine needed a little more time.)

I also grilled corn in the husk...delicious! =)

Vegetable Obedience

Avery's Primary teacher related the following to Jeremy after church today:

The teacher was asking the kids (5 and 6 year olds) ways that they can show obedience. They had lots of great answers. Avery then raised her hand and said,

"I can be obedient by being modest and not wearing zucchinis."

Teacher: "You mean bikinis?"

"No, zucchinis."

Juicy Lucy Night

"What in the world is a Juicy Lucy?", you may ask. Well, it is a deliciously seasoned ground beef patty surrounding several slices of colby jack cheese and then grilled to sumptuous perfection.
No, I didn't come up with this...we saw it on Man Vs. Food a few months ago.

You can eat it on a bun or all by itself!
It does get a little messy though!

The whole family loved them! It was a fun day...

...followed by fresh peach pie! I love cooking!

Y-e-e-e-e-i-i-i-k-e-s!

I think these pictures speak for themselves...

Culinary De-lite!

I am so excited about our dinner that we had tonight! I marinated steak in extra virgin olive oil, fresh basil, freshly pressed garlic, fresh ground sea salt and peppercorns, then grilled it...and VIOLA! It was so simple, but turned out so tasty...and very healthy.

My kids gobbled it up and my hubby was oh-so-pleased. I love cooking! =)

We are in!

We are so excited about our new home in WA! We closed on Friday and are all moved in. We are still unpacking a couple straggler boxes, but we are almost finished. Thanks to my mom, Beverly, our kitchen and bathrooms are exceptionally organized and neat...thank heaven for moms! We love the neighborhood and are looking forward to our new ward.

I would post some pictures, but I can't find my camera yet! =)
