Foody Friday

Ok, so it's really not Friday. But I'm hurtin' for somethin' to write tonight, and I've been wanting to put this up for a while, just because my charming husband was so proud of them that he took a picture... He actually said, "Here! Take a picture so you can blog about it!"

Does he know me or what?

Anyway, I did think about blogging this on Friday. So, it's ok to post this now, right? I don't have to wait all the way till next weekend, right??

Ok, to the point...

We enjoyed the MOST amazing shishkabobs on Friday. They are really Alejandro's creation. I can take no credit for this. But you've gotta' try them, because they were delicious!

Here's how to make them:

Cut chicken, onion, mango, pineapple, and red pepper into bite-size pieces. Stab them with the shishkabob stick and slide 'em down in the most colorful of patterns... Then fire up the grill.
In the mean time, put the following spices into 1/4 cup of oil (olive oil sounds good, but the truth is, we're cheap when it comes to groceries, so we used vegetable oil).

oregano - 2 pinches
cumin - 2 pinches
garlic - 2 pinches
salt - 1 pinch
pepper - 1 pinch

(Actually, he doesn't measure... he had to wrack his brain when I asked him how much of each spice, so feel free to be creative.)

Then slap 'em on the grill and while they cook, brush on the oil and spices mix. When they look like this...

...eat 'em! Oh, yummm!!!
