Meat on a veggie stick

In addition to being a big fan of fresh veggies, I'm a big fan of meat. So when I was browsing TasteSpotting for asparagus recipes to use up my asparagus, and I spotted this (originally from here), I knew it'd be dinner tonight. Steak plus asparagus= food heaven, in my book.

I bought the thinnest cut meat I could find at the grocery store, which unfortunately wasn't very thin (and I don't have any knives sharp enough to cut beef, unfortunately. My knife set is pretty pathetic). But everything worked out. Boiled the asparagus for 2 minutes. Wrapped meat around each stalk. Marinated in Ponzu sauce. Then headed outside to grill. Served with peanut sauce. Easy as pie and tasty as can be.



Will definitely make again. Only change will be making peanut sauce, or trying a different brand. The bottle I ended up with was far too salty for my taste. Tomorrow: spinach-ricotta gnocchi.
