He came home with a couple onions, some portabello mushroom slices, a packet of minute-and-a-half rice and a tuna steaks. I checked Allrecipes to find a marinade and lucked out with a recipe that required only one thing I didn't have.
I chose the Teriyaki Tuna Steaks. I didn't have any unsweetened pineapple juice so I just added a little OJ. I considered using the pineapple rum that we have, but I figured the OJ was the safer bet.
For the mushrooms and onions, we just put the slices in some foil, added some butter and minced garlic, and set it on the grill to cook.
Remember how we had the yellow dinner earlier this month? Well, this was the brown dinner.
The McHusband grilled the tuna for the recommended time (about 6 minutes on each side) and when we checked, the insides were a little too pink and raw-looking for us. He threw them back on the grill for a couple more minutes and they came out more to our liking. Still pink inside, but they were cooked all the way through. I know, some of you are cringing about our obviously overcooked tuna, aren't you?
You did a great job, McHusband! It was all delicious. So...what're you making tonight?

Those 6 packs of little pineapple juices are nice to have IN THE PANTRY -- I use them for the Ham Loaves and the baked pineapple that nobody likes but Ryan and I. McMom
