I made these the other night…I made an extra trip to the store to get the ingredients needed for this morning’s news segment…and spotted some $.99 whole mushrooms. I see them often for $.99 in the mark down basket in the produce section. I found more this morning…sliced this time. I don’t typically buy extra food when I’m getting food for news segments, but I couldn’t pass these up!
(Gonna have to change the menu plan to incorporate some of the marked down goodies I found this morning!)
This is simple.
- Stew beef
- Whole mushrooms
- Green peppers
- Steak seasoning
That’s it!
Simple…but oh, so yummy!

Kabobs are such a great summer no-fuss meal!
karen says
can you make the kebabs w/o the sticks? it would be more like a stir fry, no?
Erin, The $5 Dinner Mom says
Yes…this would make a great stir-fry…toss a little soy or teriyaki for a flavor boost!

Those are delish! Where did you find your skewers? I haven’t been able to find metal ones anywhere.
Thanks so much for hosting!

@Liz@HoosierHomemade,
I think we got them at Kroger…eons ago?! I’m sure they are out in stores now…being the peak of grilling season?!?

They look great, but is stew meat chew-able if it’s not stewed? I thought it would be too tough to grill.
Erin, The $5 Dinner Mom says
@amy,
I had a similar thought…but the meat turned out nicely. I didn’t overgrill it. I thought it was perfect!

These look fabulous! I think I need to try kabobs…kebabs….I see them spelled both ways…I will have to check the dictionary! LOL! 🙂

Looks delicious. What a deal!

I’ve tried similar recipes before using stew meat on kabobs. Even when it’s *just* undercooked, it’s still really, really tough. I would wait till a better, more tender cut of meat is on sale to make these. But I have a sensitive jaw…so it might be fine for others.
