Ingredients
  

Steak Kabobs

  • 2 Top Sirloin Steaks cut into 1 inch cubes
  • 1/4 Cup Olive Oil
  • 1 Tbsp Dijon
  • 2 Garlic Cloves grated
  • 1 Lemon juiced
  • 1 Tsp Oregano
  • 1/2 Tsp Salt
  • 1/4 Tsp Pepper
  • 1 Red Bell Pepper
  • 1 Red Onion

Greek Orzo Salad

  • 2 Cups Orzo cooked
  • 1 Cup Cucumber chopped
  • 1 Cup Cherry Tomatoes halved
  • 1/2 Cup Kalamata Olives pitted and halved
  • 1/2 Cup Feta cubed
  • 1/3 Cup Olice Oil
  • 1/4 Cup Red Wine Vinegar
  • 1 Tsp Oregano
  • 1/4 Tsp Onion Powder
  • 1 Garlic Clove grated
  • 1 Tsp Salt
  • 1/4 Tsp Pepper

Tzatziki

  • 1 Cup Plain Unsweetened Greek Yogurt I used Kite Hill
  • 1/2 Cup Grated Cucumber squeeze in cheese to get rid of excess water
  • 1 1/2 Tbsp Lemon Juice
  • 1 Tbsp Dill
  • 1 Garlic Clove grated
  • 1/2 Tsp Salt
  • 1/4 Tsp Pepper

Instructions
 

  • Start by marinading the beef, add olive oil, dijon, lemon juice, garlic, oregano, salt a pepper to a medium-size bowl. Mix all ingredients together and add the steak cubes. Marinade in the fridge for 6-8 hours.
  • Next, make the orzo salad. Add the orzo, cucumber, cherry tomatoes, olives and feta to a large bowl. In a mason jar or container with a lid add the olive oil, red wine vinegar, oregano, onion powder, grated garlic, salt and pepper. Place the lid on the jar or container and shake vigorously until the dressing is fully combined. Pour the dressing over the orzo mixture and toss until combined.
  • Then, make the tzatziki by combining all tzatziki ingredients in a bowl and mixing until fully combined.
  • Store the orzo and tzatziki in the fridge until the steak skewers are done.
  • Once the steak is done marinading, start skewering them. I alternated between steak, bell pepper, red onion until I had 4 hearty skewers. (You can use any vegetables you like)
  • Grill the skewers over medium high heat and cook for 10 to 12 minutes.
  • Serve the skewers with the orzo salad and tzatziki. Enjoy!

Notes

If using wooden skewers soak them for a few hours in water so that they don't burn
