Cassie's birthday dinner

Today I made strip steaks on the grill seasoned with salt and pepper and allowed to set 30 minutes before grilling.

I grilled corn to get a little char, cut it from the cob, added it to a saucepan added butter salt and honey and kept hot until ready to serve.

 I cut zucchini into thick medallions added a quarter of an onion chopped and a box or baby bella mushrooms in a pan with olive oil, salt, lemon pepper and cointreau and let marinate for a couple of hours, then cooked in skillet over medium-medium low, covered part of the time until crispy soft.

Green beans simmered in water with onion, bacon and maple syrup and salt. (It needed more salt.)  Cooked at a slow simmer for an hour.  Last time used maple cured bacon-was better that way.

Served the cheesecake for dessert with mimosas.
