This is what I had for lunch today. And it only took me 15 minutes to make.

I am a big fan of using the barbecue throughout the summer. The house doesn’t heat up, and everything cooks so flipping quickly that you don’t have to wait long for a meal to come together.

This meal was created with the help of Patak’s Tandoori curry paste. I added it to yogurt, slathered it on chicken breast, and bam! 

The meal was already half done! 

Taking pictures of a barbecue grill is never as fabulous as you imagine it in your head. But see those grill marks? 

Yeah, baby. Those make me feel better.

I gobbled this salad up quickly. The spice of the tandoori coupled with the sweetness of the strawberries was delicious. 

I’m going through a balsamic phase (ask my husband, he’s sick to death of me talking about it), so I figured just a drizzle of olive oil and balsamic would finish this salad off.

And I was right. The balsamic and the strawberries were very good friends.

If you want to whip up a quick dinner salad (or a lunch), heat up the grill and grab a jar of tandoori curry. You’ll be sitting on the patio and eating your salad in no time.
