Tips

• You can also place skewers over brown rice to add some healthy grains.
• For an even healthier option, substitute beef with chicken.
• Before adding the beef to your marinade, you can keep 1/4 cup of the sauce to baste your skewers after grilling.
• Use aluminum foil to keep food moist and ensure it cooks evenly. It also makes cleaning up that much easier.
