This is how you have some fun with the grill this summer! Asian Beef Kabobs are marinated in soy sauce for an extra-savory flavor, and then served along a sweet-and-spicy pineapple salad to help balance out the beefiness, and offer a little refreshment from the heavier meat. It’s light, satisfying, and a breeze to make… exactly the right dish for a summer cookout! Whip up some of these Asian Beef Kabobs and enjoy the warm weather and great times by the grill!
