For Lent this year, I’ll be giving up meat. It’s day three and I already feel like I’m being majorly challenged. I’m a picky eater as it is, so cutting out all my chicken and beef isn’t giving me as many options for dinner. The first year that I fasted from meat, I was eating peanut butter and jelly sandwiches almost every day. Thankfully, over the years, I’ve learned a few tricks to survive the Lenten season without feeling too starved of protein.

You know those recipes that remind you of childhood? I don’t just mean peanut butter and jelly sandwiches, macaroni and cheese from a box, or any sort of conglomerative childhood eating metaphor. I’m talking about those dishes you associate with a certain person or aspect of your life. Those dishes where, one bite, just one bite, stirs up a whole reminiscing of memories and a friendship that’s lasted over 15 years.

I’m a big fan of one-pot meals. Partially because it cuts down on the dishes, partially for the simplicity, but also because I really like the idea of all the flavors from all the ingredients melding together in one big pot of yummy-ness. And that’s totally what this recipe is.

Kabobs may just be my new favorite way to barbecue! I love the all-in-oneness of sliding all your veggies and meats onto skewers and letting them grill up.
