Mix dressing according to directions, add lemon juice and a dash of Worchestershire sauce. Place steak in ziplock bag or plastic container with lid and add dressing and chopped onion. Close bag or container and shake to cover steak in marinade. Marinate for 24 hours, turning occasionally to keep meat evenly covered. Broil steak on a low flame for 15 minutes each side or until medium. Many people like London Broil Medium rare but with the kids I tend to cook it longer and make sure it isn't as pink. While the steak is cooking, put the veggies on a shishkabob stick and brush with melted butter. Broil until golden brown.

Summer Pasta Salad
- 16 oz. pkg. Spiral Pasta
- 1/2 pint sliced mushrooms
- 1/2 pint cherry tomatoes, sliced in half
- 1/2 cup uncooked broccoli, cut into small pieces
- 1/2 cup uncooked cauliflower, cut into small pieces
- 1/4 cup sliced green olives with pimentos

Cook pasta according to the directions. Rinse with cold water and then chill for 2 hours. Add all the ingredients, gently mixing. Add the Ranch Dressing, stirring gently until mixed. Use as much or as little as you like---it is not necessary to use the whole jar. Chill for 1 hour before serving. YUM!
Dessert
Red, White and Blue Cake
- 2 pints Strawberries, 1 pint cut up into pieces, 1 pint sliced in half
- 2 pints blueberries
- 2 Sara Lee Poundcakes
- 1 large tub Cool Whip

Slice the poundcakes into 8 slices to make 16 all together. Lay 8 slices together in an 11X13 sized pan. Sprinkle the chopped strawberries and the blueberries onto the slices. Place the other 8 slices on top of the bottom slices. Cover the top in Cool Whip. Take the blueberries and place them on the top corner of the cake in rows, to look like the 50 stars on a flag. Take the strawberry halves and place them in rows cut side down to look like the red stripes on a flag. When done it should look just like a US flag! Chill for 2 hours before serving. YUMMMM!!!
Enjoy!
