Leslee and Kelly's Cooking

I am down in Arizona visiting Kelly and the rest of the family.  We tired out these two recipes on Tuesday night but I have been a little slow posting about them.  Kelly made the London Broil herself and I did the cobler.  She rumbed the meat in the cumin and a peppery rub and cooked it on the George Forman.  To keep the juices from running out she made the grill level.  This cooked it perfectly and tender.  In the oven she roasted the corn and tomatoes along with some sweet peppers and squash.  We served the meal with rice cooked in beef broth and garlic. It was very tasty and I think everyone enjoyed it.  It was an easy meal and reminded me of something we would eat in the summertime!
It was so bright and colorful, very healthy too!




Even the little girls scarfed it up (Summer and cousin Abby).  It was a little spicy and peppery with the rub so next time we might not use quite so much.  Poor little summy had pepper flakes all over her tongue by the end but that didn't slow her down!



I did not take a picture of the cobbler but it didn't turn out too pretty.  I put a lot more berries on this time and used a different baking mix.  It took quite a while to cook and ended up getting a little musy, or maybe the berries just took over.  We ate it over some vanilla icecream and it was very good, despite the appearances!
Two great recipe choices, thanks Audrey!

Very pretty presentation on the plate! The veggies all look good enough to eat. Thanks for the review and pictures. Glad the little girls enjoyed the meal too.

I enjoyed your pictures, especially of the little ones. I also liked your idea of adding extra veggies to the dish. It would be a good recipe for summer with all the fresh vegetables available. Thanks for your post.
