Dinner Tonight - Souvlaki and Greek Grilled veggie salad.

s_claus · April 2015

The April Throwdown inspired me to try something Greek on the egg. So tonight's menu is grilled pork souvlaki, grilled veggies, and a grilled pear for dessert.

The pork loin was sliced about 1/4 to 3/8 inch thick and marinated in mix of lemon zest, lemon juice, garlic, oregano, mint and EVOO. The veggies will be grilled and then dressed with this same mixture. Of course, there will be tzatziki sauce for the finished product. Finally, the pear will be grilled then served with yogurt, fresh mint and local honey.

Here are the basic ingredients before starting.

And here they are prepped. The pork is bathing in its marinade. The veggies are cleaned and cut and the pear is ready. The tzatziki is made and there is a mixing cup of the dressing for the veggies.

Gotta go now and start the fire.

I've got to figure out why photobucket won't cooperate.

Try again with the pictures.

Sorry, I got so wound up while cooking, I forgot to take a pic of the pork on the egg.

And ready to eat. Oh yeah, I realized after I took the shot and started eating that I had forgotten to put some feta on the veggies. So imagine some on the plate as well.

And finally to finish the meal. A roasted pear with yogurt, fresh mint and honey. However, the pear was still warm and the yogurt and honey ran before I could get a "pretty" photo.
