Don't you just want to tuck in?

I love my meat, I really do, though I'm not into red meat, I can't live without chicken or pork. As soon as the first rays of sun shine through my windows, I feel like barbecuing and rush to get my sausages and meat to marinate. But what is a barbecue without salad, sauces and bread?

Here's a delicious salad, you can even eat on its own:

Mixed salad                                                    
Grated carrots
Spring onions
Cherry tomatoes
Kidney beans
Sweetcorn
Mozzarella
Grapes (I prefer red)
Dressing: Whole grain mustard with honey and olive oil.
Seasoned with a pinch of salt.

For the sausages and Turkish Bread, I love tzaziki and this special ketchup: it's from Germany and the best ketchup ever, even if you just have fries.

Here a quick marinade for meat:
Tomato ketchup (any cheap one will do)
Gherkins
Chili
Red and green peppers
Spring onions
Garlic
Capers
Salt and Pepper
Olive oil

Chop the ingredients into little pieces, then mix everything together. Marinade the meat for at least two hours. It makes it tasty and tender.

Have you got a great marinade to share? Please leave a comment with the recipe.

Cheers,

Stella
