Weekly Tip: Marinating

Many people will marinate meats and vegetables in dressing before cooking on the grill. Marinating adds a ton of flavor with minimum effort and since it is an established flavor, you don't have to mess with measuring anything.

If you are going to use a salad dressing to marinate your food, choose a light or fat free version. The oil in most dressings provides no flavor and can burn on the grill, but the fat free and light versions often omit the oil.
