Citrus Marinade
Lately, I haven't wanted to cook very much, unless it is on my grill. I don't know if it is the heat, or just wanting to enjoy the last few weeks of summer. But because of that, I have been able to try out some new marinades. This one was delicious. A little citrus-y, a little mustard-y. The recipe said to marinade it for eight hours. I never remember to do that, so this got about 30 minutes. And it still tasted great. I marinaded chicken, but I bet this would be great with pork, too. Sorry that the pictures aren't great. I keep forgetting to take pictures until the last minute, or we've cleaned up dinner, or all I have clean is a Blue's Clues plate. Don't let that deter you from this recipe.
