Oh the open grill during an outdoor excursion makes
everyone’s mouth water. We think it’ll water
even more when this dish is plated. The rib
eye, a meat lovers dream. With is flavorful marbling; the rib eye may
be perfection in a steak. Dressed simply
with olive oil, a squeeze of lemon, salt and pepper this flavorful cut of meat
could stand absolutely on its own.
However, when it’s paired with scrumptious pecan and shallot infused
butter, it becomes over-the-top, melt in your mouth good. And the best part, when prepared at the
campsite, it can be the evening highlight after an outstanding outdoors
adventure.

This recipe is a great stand alone for our vegetarian and vegan friends, but has an amazing flavor melding to stand up to our meat-a-saurus rib eye as a fitting side kick.
As an
emerging celebrity of the whole grain circuit, quinoa (pronounced KEEN-wah) is
finally emerging into its rightful place as a superfood, both at the campsite
and in the home. With its mild, but
nutty flavor, this power packed staple, high in protein and fiber, stands up
well to just about any flavor thrown at it.
And, did we mention it’s easy to cook.
In our nutty version, we add an extra dose of protein through almonds
and a little carb kick with fruit. Yet
the real zing is a little cayenne pepper for a “little get out and enjoy the
outdoors” zest.
