As a change of food from the grill, may I suggest an alternate - Quick Spicy Thai Beef. You’ll have dinner on the table in a half hour and have a wonderful meal to serve your family. A wonderful blend of sweet and spicy sauces makes this quick-to-prepare savory dish delicious.

Polenta is a wonderful base for so many toppings – a hearty stew, chili, sautéed or roasted veggies as in this recipe – mushrooms!
Read MoreThis is an easy and versatile chicken recipe as you can make it to bake in the oven or to cook on the BBQ. I make my own Hoisin sauce but you can use a store-bought version as well.

Using store-bought sauces are fine, just don’t add additional salt to the recipe!
