THE BEST 5-INGREDIENT STEAK MARINADE

Hello planners!

Did you have a nice July 4th holiday?  I spent some time with friends and family and enjoyed a good ol’ grill out.  So good! 

When I was growing up I was very lucky to have a parent who was an excellent cook who spoiled us breakfast, lunch and dinner!  I have many a favorite dishes I love to request of my mom whenever I come home, but the one that never gets old (anytime of year) is grilled steak.  And while grilled steak sounds simple enough, you can definitely ruin a good steak if you’re not careful! 

So in honor of July’s Grilling Month, I’m sharing my mother’s go-to, no-fail Steak Marinade recipe.  Keep scrolling for the details!
