Broiled Tuna & Vegetable Kabobs
10 minutes to prepare, 15 minutes to cook
Serves: 4
Ingredients:
4 tuna steaks, about 5 oz/140 g each
2 red onions
12 cherry tomatoes
1 red bell pepper, seeded and diced into 1 - inch pieces
1 yellow bell pepper, seeded and diced into 1 inch pieces
1 zucchini, sliced
1 tbsp chopped fresh oregano
4 tbsp olive oil freshly ground black pepper
lime wedges
1. Preheat the broiler to high. Cut the tuna into 1 inch 2.5 cm dice. Peel the onions, leaving the root intact, and cut each onion lengthwise into 6 wedges.
2. Divide the fish and vegetables evenly between 8 wooden skewers (presoaked to avoid burning) and arrange on the broiler pan.
3. Mix the oregano and oil together in a small bowl. Season to taste with pepper. Lightly brush the kabobs with oil and cook under the preheated broiler for 10 - 15 minutes or until evenly cooked, turning occasionally. If you cannot fit all the kabobs on the broiler pan at once, cook them in batches, keeping the cooked kabobs warm while cooking the remainder. Alternatively, these kabobs can be cooked on a barbecue.
4. Garnish with lime wedges and serve with a selection of salads, cooked couscous, new potatoes, or bread.

About Me
Hey guys! I am a native Washingtonian, wife & mother of two. My story is much like most women who have struggled to regain their body, love-of-self, and emotional confidence while going through life’s challenges. Eating became my biggest comfort in dealing with these challenges, and little by little 100 extra pounds of guilt and shame became my newest reality.
My wake-up call was looking in the mirror and not recognizing the person staring back at me, nor being familiar with the pain & illnesses associated with this new body. I had become a different person, but I knew, deep down inside, that I loved myself more than the stranger I had become. By the grace of God, consistency, and determination, I crawled out of depression and into a life filled with rejuvenation and purpose through healthy eating and daily exercise. Heal the mind and the body will follow! Tap into your emotional center and you'll discover the TRUE Beauty N YOU!
