Surf and Turf Kabobs

Kabobs on the grill are a great way to save time and still have a great dinner. Forget about a long clean up after dinner of washing pots and pans and cleaning the kitchen. Forget about slaving over the stove preparing the main course and all of it's side dishes. The biggest challenge is cutting up the vegetable's and meat and sliding them onto a skewer; fire up the coals and your done!

 1 Green Pepper
 1 Yellow Onion
 1 Tomato
 6-8 ounce mushrooms
 Marinade (Make your own marinade found here or to save more time buy some)
Serves 4
