Don’t let the rain ruin your plans for a Father’s Day cookout.  You can still throw your favorite father a BBQ in his honor -  just shift gears from a cookout to a “cook-in.”  Here’s a menu that you can make on the grill or in a grill pan.

 

 

Cookout or “Cook-In” Menu
 
Black bean and corn quesadillas
Chips and mango salsa
Coffee and chili rubbed steak
Chopped cucumber, red pepper and tomato salad
Chipotle mashed potatoes (add 2 Tbs. chipotle peppers canned in adobo sauce to your favorite type of mashed potatoes)
Grilled Asparagus
Espresso chocolate chunk cookies
Fruit kabobs (thread chunks of fresh fruit on bamboo skewers and drizzle with honey and fresh lime juice)
 
Vodka spiked lemonade or peach iced tea sweetened with agave nectar
Assorted ice-cold beer
