Grilled Lemon-pepper chicken/Salad with Creamy Poppyseed Vinegarette - Dinner #9

Being at my mom's house the past few weeks, made me realize how much I cook on the grill...because she doesn't have one.  Anytime of the year...throw some meat on the grill...make something to go with it...and there you go.  Just makes it easier for me...

Basic Marinade - (4-6 chicken breasts or 4 steaks, etc)
1/3 cup oil
1/3 cup soy sauce
1/3 cup lime juice...or lemon juice...or 2 T vinegar
1-2 Tablespoons of seasoning
*increase or cut this down depending on how many pieces of meat
Be creative - put a splash of this and that to change it up... but remember that soy sauce is very salty.
Put your meat in a pan with marinade at least an hour before cooking - turn sides occasionally.

Lemon Pepper Chicken
I used this marinade with fresh squeezed lemon juice and 1 Tablespoon of lemon pepper seasoning.

While I was waiting...I made a salad with:

Spinach and Arugula greens

Grape tomatoes - cut in half

Sliced cucumber

Sliced yellow pepper

1/2 of a sliced white onion

Garbanzo beans (rinsed out of the can)

Sunflower seeds

Creamy Poppyseed Vinegarette

1/2 cup oil

1/3 cup apple cider vinegar

1 tsp ground mustard

1 Tablespoon poppyseeds

One 4 or 6 oz container of Honey-Greek Yogurt

Whisk until smooth and refrigerate - whisk again before serving.
