We have enjoyed (endured) some really HOT days this summer. The only problem is that our garden isn’t quite finished yet and we haven’t been able to put a BBQ out so instead of cooking dinner outside we have had some fun ‘indoor bbq’ dinners and the kids LOVE them!
I was so impressed at my little man who munched his way through the whole kebab (minus the tomatoes) I told him I was so proud of him for eating the red onion (something he would usually pick out) and asked him what made him eat it this time. He said “because it’s red and my favourite colour is red.” Well, besides the fact that his favourite colour has always been blue and a red onion being purple we all laughed and asked him why he didn’t eat the red tomato, to which he replied “because tomatoes are disgusting!” Gotta love a 5 year olds honesty.
These are literally chicken fajitas on a stick. Fun, fuss free eating. They can be served with wholegrain wraps, wholegrain rice or for a lighter meal you can serve them with a leafy side salad, homemade guacamole and fresh corn cobs. Delicious!
