Steak & Quinoa Protein Bowl #SundaySupper #GrillTalk

June 21, 2015 By Jennifer @ PB and P Design 24 Comments

Hi Everyone,

I have to admit it has been hot here!  We went from cold to 100 degrees practically overnight.  The last thing I want to do in this heat is turn on the stove and make a hot meal.  I am craving, light, refreshing and flavorful.  That is why I am glad that #SundaySupper teamed up with Certified Angus Beef® brand.  Nothing beats a nice juicy steak paired with healthy vegetables from the garden.

Steak & Quinoa Protein Bowl #SundaySupper #GrillTalk

I made the most delicious protein bowl ever.  It’s made with Certified Angus Beef® Sirloin that has been grilled with just a little bit of olive oil, salt and pepper.  I sided my sirloin steak with cucumbers, tomatoes, basil and scallions from my garden.  Nothing like freshly picked vegetables.  To add a boost of fiber, protein and healthy carbs I topped my dish on a bed of quinoa.  Yum!

Steak & Quinoa Protein Bowl #SundaySupper #GrillTalk


I personally like my steak on the plain side when it comes to cooking.  I think the flavor of Certified Angus Beef® grilled with just a little bit of olive oil is simply perfect.  You get true flavor of the steak which is what this dish is all about.  I grilled my steak for five minutes on each side.  I try not to over-cook it.  My Husband on the other hand, tends to over-cook the steak.  He just sets it on the grill and leaves it, not me.  I watch it, baby it and I time it.  I think steak is one piece of meat that needs that extra touch of love when you cook it.

For the vegetables I kept it simple and light.  I just added some grape tomatoes, thinly sliced cucumbers and a little bit of scallions.  For a boost of flavors on the vegetables I added some freshly chopped basil and just drizzled it with a little olive oil.  Simply perfect.  I cheated when it came to the quinoa.  I had some already cooked in the freezer and just microwaved it for a few minutes.  That is totally the best way to save on time when it comes to dinner.  With prep and cooking the steak it only took me about 10 minutes to put it all together.  You can’t beat that!

Steak & Quinoa Protein Bowl #SundaySupper #GrillTalk

I enjoy cooking with Certified Angus Beef® brand because it is the best beef available.  It has the best outstanding flavor because of the Marbling, which is the white flecks of flavor within the meat which ensures that it will be tender and juicy.  No knife needed for my recipe.  Did you know that Certified Angus Beef® brand has been around since 1978 and it is the original Certified Angus Beef® brand.  Now you know why it is so good.  You can also find Certified Angus Beef® brand at your local grocery store. Just go here to find a store near you. 

If you love beef as much as I do, you need to check out the Certified Angus Beef Pinterest Board for more recipes.

I am sure this will be making my recipe over and over this summer.  I just may change it up, and add some other vegetables to it.

Be sure to check out the other wonderful Beef recipes that the #SundaySupper gang is sharing today.

Now go heat up those grills.

Toodles,

Jennifer

Happy Tuesday! I thought it would be fun to create Happy Tuesday! I thought it would be fun to create an outdoor tablescape. It’s such a pretty space to see and I love how you can make the outdoors an extension of your home. I loved looking out my window and seeing my table. Now I wouldn’t leave it up like I do my dining room, but it was fun to keep it up for the day. 
🌸
Now let me tell you, it is so hard for me to photograph outside. I tried to do it before sunrise and I tried again at sunset. Ugh! I just can’t get the right lighting. I don’t know how so many people make there outdoors look so pretty. If you have any tips, let me know. I’d appreciate that.
🌸
Do you like to photograph outside?

Happy Monday! Last week of work until vacation. I Happy Monday! Last week of work until vacation. I can’t wait. I haven’t had any vacation since Christmas, except for a few random days here and there. I have no plans, but I sure plan on enjoying it.
🌿
Speaking of Christmas, I don’t think I have showed you my console table me since then. I finally finished decorating it. It’s been half done for about a month. Before that, it was an awful catch all space. 
🌿
I decided to stick to the greens, neutrals and for some added color yellow. I really like using yellow this time of year. I noticed I started decorating with yellow in my dining room and it trinkled into my living room. 
🌿
What’s your favorite color to decorate for in the summer?

~M🌼Y your day be filled with happy moments and beautiful flowers! 

I decided to create a zinnia garden this year and I am so excited to see it bloom. A few flowers started to show. I didn’t want Sully 🐶 in the garden, so I put a fence around it.  It worked for about 3 weeks. I was on stories yesterday, showing other parts of the garden and I turned around and saw Sully in my garden. I must have screamed so loud. He was stuck in there and panicking because I was. I got him out and no damage to any of the flowers. That was scary! 

We’re a fabulous group of friends sharing our love of flowers, elements of nature inside and outside our homes throughout the seasons!

Happy Tuesday! This weekend my husband and I went Happy Tuesday! This weekend my husband and I went cherry picking. It was so fun! We got so many cherries. I’m guessing about 9 pounds. I have no clue how two people are going to eat 9 pounds of cherries? But we will try.
🍒
I am so happy we were actually able to pick cherries. We missed out the past couple of years. The season comes up so fast and only lasts a couple of weeks. Plus it gets so busy that the traffic is awful. That’s one thing about California is the traffic is so bad here that it takes the joy out of doing things. But not this year! I got my cherries!! 
🍒
If swipe the photos, you will see the bucket of cherries and a couple cherries on the tree.

What is your favorite cherry recipe?

☀️🌸☀️WELCOME to the FLOWER LOVIN' FRIE ☀️🌸☀️WELCOME to the FLOWER  LOVIN' FRIENDS DECOR TOUR! 
M🌸Y every flower lift your spirits!

I am sharing with you my Everblooming Hydrangea. This is a full sun hydrangea. I planted it last year and it did so crappy. I was shocked to see so many flowers on it. We have had a relatively cool Spring, so it’s been happy. Today it got hot out and I just went out to look at the hydrangea and it’s shriveling. So I need to capture this moment before it poops out this summer.

We are a fabulous group of friends sharing their love of flowers and elements of nature inside and outside our homes throughout the seasons!

Happy Wednesday! We are half way through the week. Happy Wednesday! We are half way through the week. I can’t believe that this weekend is Mothers Day. It just seems early this year. I am not sure what are plans are going to be this weekend?
🌷
I am sharing with you the @krumpetshomedecor deal of the week. It’s a set of two mango wood trays with a beautiful rope handle.
🌷
The bigger tray I used to make a tulip arrangement. It’s such a great size. The last photo is also how I used the tray on my bed. The smaller tray is perfect for holding my olive oils in my kitchen. These trays will fit in about  any space. I just love them.
🌷
Don’t forget that Krumpets Home Decor is having 25% off there whole site. Plus you can use my 10% off discount code on top of the sale price: PBANDP. The link is in my bio.

Happy Tuesday! Boy allergy season has hit me hard. Happy Tuesday! Boy allergy season has hit me hard. I have been sneezing like crazy and then my nose runs. Ugh! I never have allergies. It must be all the crazy weather. We’ve had high winds since last Tuesday and temps in the 70’s. Tomorrow mid 90’s, then back to the 70’s. No wonders my allergies are acting up.
🌸
I’ve been adding a little decor to my patio area. I love adding pillows and blankets for pops of color and to give a cozy feel. One of my newest additions is my new Verdure Wooden Candle Lantern that I got from @icosiest_furniture. It adds a romantic ambience in the evening.
🌸
The lantern is made from Fir wood and has a beautiful jute handle. The lantern can be hung or placed on a table. The candle is battery operated and looks so beautiful flickering in the evening. Swipe the photo to see it.
🌸
I love the style of the lantern and it would also look fabulous styled indoors. I can see the lantern on a shelf, centerpiece or on a console table. 
🌸
For a closeup of the lantern, check out my highlight. COSIEST was kind enough to give my followers a 15% off anything in there store: Jennifer15. The link is in my bio.

Do you have allergies? If so, are they bad for you this year?
