What about stuffing the flank steak?

[pynkbyrd]

That's what I was going to say!

I use this recipe I got off allrecipes. It is goooood!

Marinate the flank steak in soy sauce & garlic for at least 30 minutes, more if you have time.

Remove flank steak from the marinade and pat dry. Sprinkle salt & pepper on both sides, or throw in some grill seasoning if you've got it on hand.

Grill on an outdoor grill if you have one until seared on each side but still medium-rare inside men love doing that anyway! or I've even grilled on my indoor with fab results. Cut on the bias.

Serve with baked potatoes, or a store-bought potato salad, or a loaf of crusty bread, and a garden salad.

Quick & easy.

cut it up and make a stirfry?

Tomato salad (tomatoes, basil, balsamic, olive oil, pepper, maybe some feta). Cucumber salad (cuke, dill, vinegar, pepper, salt). Roasted asparagus (a bit of olive oil, salt, pepper, plus the asparagus). Steamed broccoli sauteed in olive oil that has already had garlic and ginger frying in it. Tabouli (bulghur, cubed tomatoes and cuke, parsley, a lemony dressing).

Er, unless you weren't thinking of side dishes?
