Cooking For Two

Being married and not having children it's sometimes hard cooking. Usually my husband and I end us with tons of leftovers and we both do not like leftovers more than two days. So, I'm trying to make more meals that's what I call "Cooking for Two." I know that we aren't the only married couple out there that has this dilemma when planning meals.

Does anyone have any good thoughts about Cooking for Two?

Juicy Beef Kabobs

1 beef bone-in sirloin or round steak, 3/4 pound, 1 inch thick
3 garlic cloves, finely chopped
1/4 teaspoon grated nutmeg
1/4 cup balsamic vinegar
1/4 cup water
1 tablespoon chopped fresh oregano leaves or 1 teaspoon dried oregano leaves
2 tablespoons olive or vegetable oil
1 1/2 teaspoons chopped fresh marjoram leaves or 1/2 teaspoon dried marjoram leaves

Remove any fat from beef and cut into 1-inch pieces.

In a bowl mix remaining ingredients. Put beef in bowl and coat well with mixture. Cover and refrigerate, stirring occasionally, at least 1 hour and no more than 6 hours.

Place oven on broil.

Remove beef cubes from marinade and reserve marinade. Thread beef on each of four 10-inch metal skewers, leaving 1/2-inch space between each piece. Brush kabobs with marinade. Place kabobs on rack in broiler pan. Broil kabobs with tops about 3 inches from heat 6 to 8 minutes for medium-rare to medium doneness, turning and brushing with marinade after 3 minutes.
