K-Bobs and Good Times

Last night I had dinner with the family I cook for. If you don't remember, I cook for The H family. They are an amazing family. My friend M, who previously cooked for them, ate with them for the first time last night with me. Mr. H has always asked us to have dinner with them, but because of the circumstance, M and I usually decline. I am glad we went last night though.

I made K-Bobs tonight and I think they turned out great. In fact, there was nothing left on the plate!

After dinner, we all watched Project Runway. It was a good one. I a definitely hooked to PR. Mr. H's son, little H had his "girlfriend" over. She has just returned from a mission trip in Thailand. Little H just returned from Africa. Man, times have changed. When I was that age, I definitely wasn't traveling the world.

Here is my recipe for K-bobs:

1 green and red bell pepper, chopped in squres
1 can sliced pineapple
1.5 pounds of chicken breast, cut into chunks
1 pkg smoked turkey sausage, cut into chunks
bamboo skewers (soaked in water for at least 30 min)
Build K-bobs (I generally put a piece of bell pepper between the meats)
Season with mix of salt, pepper, paprika and garlic powder
Bake in oven at 375 for 25 min (turn once). Obviously you can grill them too, but this turned out perfect!
Serve with warm teriyaki sauce (on the side)

"Roasted" potatoes
6 small red potatoes-skin on
Cut potatoes in 1/4's, sprinkle left over seasoning from K-bobs
Add a tbsp of olive oil and a pat of butter
Mix together, wrap tightly in foil, bake 20 min at 375. After 20 min, put potatoes in bowl, cover and heat in microwave for 4 minutes!
